I'd like to see them also put in a clause to allow you the freedom to transfer handsets between carriers. Although I heard a rumor that Verizon is planning on doing this. But if something like this were to happen, how many iPhone owners would stay with Death Star mobile?
Their only other choice in that case would be T-Mobile since they are the only other nationwide supporter of GSM in the United States. Verizon and Sprint are compatible with each other but they are more difficult to work with because they do not use SIM/R-UIM cards.
Yep, who are you going to run to Mr iPhone user? Urban areas only Tmobile? Alltel went roaming only GSM, and the rest of the GSM carriers have been bought by one of the nationals. Suncom=Tmobile, Dobson=ATT, Unicel=Verizon(Switch to CDMA),EDGE Wireless=ATT.
