I've been reading that is a rumor and there is no official statement from either company. I've had no issue with verizon and had issues with ATT before so I dont want to switch. really like the iphone though and would look really hip and young on the train with it...

making s-b.com a kinder, gentler place for all

You're dead on about there not being any official statement. However, a supplier of wireless receiver chips just fulfilled an order for millions of CDMA chips. This is what the Verizon network runs on and it's assumed that an order this large is a major indicator that they are making a large production run of iPhones for the Verizon network.

I'm not sure on the validity of this, but Apple has apparently had a couple of Verizon network towers installed on their campus in recent months.

I'd hold out with Verizon until at least Jan 1.
