Verizon iPhone, Exactly the Same iPhone 4 With Logo and Verizon HotSpot Added
Updated with Apple Press Release
Looks like we are not getting an iPhone 4G from Verizon. It is just an iPhone 4 with Verizon logo and Hotspot added. Or may be few more bars than AT&T according to people who are holding the phone.
Apple's excuse for not bringing the LTE iPhone;
“Verizon customers have told us they want the iPhone NOW,”
More like they did not wanted to lose all those customers to Android 4G phones we saw at CES 2011
“We are pleased to introduce millions of wireless users to the industry leading iPhone 4 on the nation’s most reliable network,” said Lowell McAdam, president and chief operating officer of Verizon. “This is an important step for the industry as two great companies join forces to give wireless customers one of the most important technological additions to the mobile landscape this century.”Pricing is $199 for 16GB, $299 for 32GB, same as AT&T.
“Verizon Wireless customers have told us they can’t wait to get their hands on iPhone 4, and we think they are going to love it,” said Tim Cook, Apple’s chief operating officer. “We have enormous respect for the company Verizon has built and the loyalty they have earned from their customers.”
