Apple Inc. plans to begin mass producing a new iPhone by the end of 2010 that would allow Verizon Wireless to sell the smartphone early next year, said people briefed by Apple.

The new iPhone would be similar in design to the iPhone 4 currently sold by AT&T Inc. but would be based on an alternative wireless technology called CDMA used by Verizon, these people said. The phone, for which Qualcomm Inc. is providing a key chip, is expected to be released in the first quarter of next year, according to the same people.

First I've heard this from a mainstream media source... it's been bouncing around as a rumor for some time now.

No chance I'll trade in my Droid however.

Lol. Droid is poo. Got 2 friends on their 3rd Droid X and one going on his 4th. Motorola is crap. None of them leave home without their chargers either. Too late? lol It will only take a couple years till the majority of Verizon customers have an iphone. This all rumors too. Many tech sites have been reporting this for awhile.

maybe your friends just don't take very good care of them? i haven't seen any accounts of people having trouble with their X. i've had mine for a couple weeks now, and i take my charger with me a lot but because its just a USB cable. I share files between work and home computers using it.

It all happened within the first couple days of them having it. They froze up and would stutter when you would switch screens. It only took a couple of days for refurbished ones to pop up on the Verizon site. My buddy with the incredible did that 2.1 or something update and that shut his phone down. The only one i haven't heard of trouble is the regular droid. I played with one and it seemed slow to me though. I like the Droid X when it works but from my experience Motorola doesn't last long.

      Dan Morgan on Rich Eisen show

      Lol.  Now you make me defend DG. We had the best IOL in the league under DG and Oher looked solid until he got that bad concussion. DG drafted Moton and Daryl Williams as well. The OL fell apart under Hurney 2.0 and Fitterer. DG also drafted Star and Short. Sorry, but that was all in 5 drafts so let’s not make stuff up about not trying to improve hog mollies. Gettleman did a ton wrong and took the wrong guys, but he and Rivera had a deep and talented team and it got blown up really quickly. Also, I love Cam but he wasn’t the best QB in the league. He had the best year in 2015 but he wasn’t Brady. I think Dan has had a solid offseason, way better than last year but I’m not putting on rose colored glasses until we actually have a 10 win season. Again, Dave and Ron had 3 10+ wins seasons out of 5.

      Yeah I wont often comment on a coddled generation and participation trophies but this sort of begs for it. Also how did an athlete achieve at that level without getting a thicker skin?

      Right, basically what I said. Dude is crowning Dan after a 5-12 season and 1 draft, which as of right now, wasn’t good. I wasn’t judging Morgan at all. People read what they want to read like that I loved Gettleman and think he was awesome. Nope. All I said is that it’s way too freaking early to act like Morgan is amazing. I used the Gettleman/Rivera record just like I mentioned that Rhule almost beat both #1 seeds in this first year. Morgan/Canales’ team would need to win 11 a year to get to a similar record as Gettleman/Rivera’s first 5. If you are going to given Morgan a pass for bad talent, we were 15-33 the 3 years prior to Gettleman/Rivera. Again, I think all of us want this team to win again but maybe I’m a little jaded in thinking that I enjoyed 2013-2017 a helluva a lot more than 2018-2024 and I’m not a fan of smoke getting blown up my ass like we have already back.
