Made my day <: :happydance01: <: :peace: :cheering: http://www.newsoxy.com/business/verizon-iphone-to-be-announced-16419.html

I have almost zero phone coverage here in small town Iowa from AT&T. For the past week in order to use my phone I have to have my phone, and therefore also my head, pushed up against the front window of the house in a certain specific spot without moving even an inch or the call drops. Or if I want really decent reception I have to run to the end of the driveway and stand on top of the six-foot snowdrift :rolleyes: lol

I have been waiting for this in order to upgrade to the i4 version. I will buy myself out of the remainder of the AT&T contract :happydance01:

I've never had a cell phone, I've found a couple and returned one and tried to return the last one and the number I dialed they only spoke Spanish and hung up and I still got it.

I hate phones lol almost as much as TV's and computers rofl :embarrassed: But I agree the visual of a squashed face against the window or someone on a snow mound yapping is pretty funny :cheesysmile:

What you need is an EVO Android from Sprint. Sweetest phone in town... I know... I Know... :behave:

No you can not take a picture of my face against the window!! lol lol :poke: :poke:

The whole thing is hilarious. My family watches me run to the edge of the driveway and jump up and down, waving my phone in the air to get a signal :cheesysmile: This is my home ground so I am here for the week but I live in KY where the AT&T coverage is slightly better.

I'm an Apple Guy...having jumped the fence when Microsoft abandoned its customers with Vista OS. However, I don't have an iPhone (about the only Apple product I don't own) because AT&T has such lousy coverage across the country.

I currently use a Blackberry on Sprint, but would happily jump to Verizon if they ever complete the iPhone deal. They've been promising the iPhone for over a year now, but keep abandoning it at the last minute. Apple is very proprietary with their business model and Verizon certainly doesn't like it.

Let's hope.
