Yeah, in hindsight they have to realize it was pretty dumb. Luckily they have a great network, but they underestimated how much this device was going to shake things up. And it's only getting started..

verizon never let the customer decide. verizon wants to create a monopoly (much like apple). too bad VW is loosing, as stated above, "the No. 2 U.S. cellphone carrier." Gerace didn't realize the no brainer-that apple would have to step in with assistance for tech support-it's an APPLE product, meaning there would naturally be areas that only apple could address. Rightly so, there would still be areas that only VW could address. It should have been a no brainer to accept the offer. I wonder how many people left or wanted to leave Verizon b/c of the iphone.

Verizon's lack of choice in software and inferior applications is getting tiresome. I'm looking to switch away from Verizon and to the iPhone at earliest opportunity. There are simply fewer and fewer reasons to stick with Verizon with each passing day.

True, Verizon continueally launches phones that the public is not interested in. Besides that you purchase a phone there. A week later it's obsolete. But given there ongoing crappy levels of customer service you learn to expect less from them or switch providers.

I'm glad Verizon didn't take the iPhone. Every phone they get they strip down the software so you're forced to use their services instead of getting the phone you bought. Verizon would have ruined the iphone.

Verizon is just greedy. The Iphone is TOO user friendly. They want everything to be esoteric and difficult so customers pay for services they don't use. Like Vcast music for instance. What crap. I bought a chocolate and that stupid music kit and have never been able to use it. What a load of BS that I have to BUY music that I already OWN just so I can listen to it on my phone. Or that I have to BUY for 3.99 a ringtone for a song I have already PURCHASED. Verizon likes ripping people off, and apple might have stood in the way of that. (Oh BTW, I am a verizon customer and have been for about 5 years. It is about the only system offered out here in the boonies).
I just think all cell phone carriers need a swift kick in the ass. BADLY.
And don't even get me started on the music industry. Oh poor them. Whatever. They need a cold boot also.

Wish Verizon would have made this work - I really like the service and everyone I know uses it. Switching to ATT for the iPhone would be a large cost to me - both on new hardware and paying for calls that used to be free.
Please VZW, find a way. :)

Verizon is the new evil empire. I would've switched to Cingular a year ago if I could have, I've wanted to switch since just after I got my brand new RAZR, took it home and found out that VZW disabled most of the cool features the phone came with. Bluetooth is severely crippled, the only thing that works is address book sync, everything else is disabled by Verizon to force users to use their pay-to-play services. If they did the same thing to the iPhone it would be basically useless. Unfortunately I can't switch to Cingular for another year, I'm locked into a 2yr contract. But as soon as that contract is over, I'm saying adios to Verizon and their monopolistic ways.

maybe not the greatest blunder ever...there's too many to count...but the carriers have always had too much control over the devices (meaning: ALL). apple had the clout to control the device. that changed the industry dramatically and will continue to change it...i'm a vz customer for years...like the svc generally, but i really might consider switching if i have to forever for VZ iPhone.

Verizon would have cleaned up and wiped out the competition. They were too busy bleeding their customers for every penny instead of going for the gold. They should start listening to their customers....Apple is way better at developing user interfaces and Technological Innovation. Stop putting a Verizon tail-spin on the user interface; you don't know what you are doing.

I have been with Verizon for years. When my current contract runs out, I am switching carriers so that I can have an iphone. It's really too bad because I have been very satisfied with my service. I have many Verizon lines, for business & personal. Too bad Verizon. Biggest mistake you could have made. If I am changing, you can be sure many, many others are changing as well.

Verizon is a shitty company run but morons who have no concept of customer service. They do however have two things going, A huge customer base, and IN calling. This allows them to compete, and only this. The iphone for them would have been a winfall.

Verizon blew it big time. The iPhone would have placed their phone inventory in the 21st century. Their awesome network and Apple would have been unbeatable in the cell phone industry. Now folks, including myself, want to switch. This 2yr agreement BS is for the birds. Your phone is obsolete in 3 months but you have to keep it until your agreement is up for renewal in 2yrs. Why don't they understand -- the agreement should tie you to their service NOT the physical phone. Phones depreciate quicker than cars; they're garbage after 2yrs.

I think that Verizon blew it. AT&T has improved their network and continues to do so. While I still say Verizon has a better network (for now) AT&T is making it much easier to make the switch. For all those posts saying that nobody is leaving Verizon for the iPhone I personally know 6 people who have jumped. Verizon has always been higher priced than everyone else and has always carried boring phones, when is the last time people have spent the night in line for the big release of the LG Voyager. Come on!! I have played with the "iPhone killer" and I got to say it actually made me want an iPhone even more.
