Significant difference between AT&T vs Verizon/Sprint?
I am definitely buying the new iPhone 4S, and I was trying to decide between Verizon (my current carrier) and AT&T (which I used to have as my carrier).
After reading about 10-15 messages on this subject here in the discussions, I think I am going to remain with Verizon for the following reason: unlocked iPhones (including the 4S) can ONLY work on GSM networks, not CDMA-based ones. However, the Verizon/Sprint versions of the iPhone COULD be unlocked and used with a GSM network. Now, whether Verizon will agree to unlock an iPhone such that it could be used with a GSM network is another matter. (I'm primarily interested in being able to use it abroad with a local carrier's SIM card, instead of paying Verizon's roaming rates. If Verizon sticks to precedent, I should be able to get the iPhone unlocked after 6 months. Does anyone agree/disagree with this scenario? Thanks.
