I personally prefer Sprint as a network too. But, I love my iPhone. If Sprint carried the iPhone, I'd leave AT&T in a heartbeat. As it stands, I'm going to pre-order the iPhone 4G this Tuesday. The EVO is a worthy phone too IMO...but I still prefer the iPhone...especially b/c I have Apple stock

If you're going to spout shit, at least make sure to quote something that backs you up.

Nothing more annoying that an internet turd spouting rumor of rumor and then can't get even that right.

I've been reading Q4 2010 for a CDMA iPhone from several sources. But everything is just rumor until it happens.

Don't spout things as truth when they're not. Internet or IRL, it's bad form. Don't be a rumor mongering twat, and people won't think you're one. Don't use this forum as a barrier to your idiocy.

Whatever you say, kiddo.

Hopefully you learned a lesson, but I doubt it. Stubborn, hard headed, ignorant, and a know it all. I feel for you.

And you missed the point. Doesn't matter if it's a phone, a car, a house, a new tax law, new Government policy, etc....don't post fact when you don't know wtf you're talking about.

Since your reading comprehension is lacking, I'll say it again. I never said Verizon wasn't going to have an iPhone, just not in the ridiculously soon time frame that you claimed, and provided subsequent contrary information to insubstantiate your claim.

Gadget sites present speculation based on rumor, and we indulge in that on occasion, because we want to believe. People who don't do their research, however, before stating ominous 'facts', I do find irksome. Simply put, I have a very low tolerance for ignorant people. Sadly, it seems the internet offers a very broad platform for said people to speak in idiocies when they'd never do it in person.

obviously your reading comprehension is lacking as well. I clearly see you saying that what I said wasnt going to happen at all. You said it was bullshit that the iphone was going to be available on the verizon platform. Maybe you "Meant" to say that it wasnt going to be available till a later time frame but its not how you worded it.
All this bickering was brought on by your lack of communication skills. Had you said "No blue its gonna be released a few months later" all this bullshit couldve been averted. Since you didnt say it like that, you made you and me look like complete assholes that are fighting over a damn phone.

Don't put your asshole on me. Your assessment is lacking in an effort to make you look less stupid for making wild claims because a 'Verizon guy told you'. I told you that a few weeks after release was rumor. That's what I responded to and you got all defensive and backed yourself into a corner. I then provided more accurate information about the timeline, at which point, you've continued to ramble on. Give it up. You were wrong. Admit it and move on.

Oh, and please do not try and say that my communication skills are lacking. It's pretty obvious I'm not the one with a problem with the written word.

I'm done.

Let me jump in here real quick.

Bluespeed, you heard that Verizon would be "picking up the iphone within the first few weeks of its release." See post here.

Ronin said that your information was false. It's a rumor. See post here.

After a few back and forths -- yes, no -- it became quite obvious that Ronin was keying on your time frame of "within the first few weeks of release."

Bluespeed, you then posted a story, which showed that Verizon would eventually pick up the iPhone. However, your story did not show that it would happen "within the first few weeks of release." See post here.

Ronin jumped on that. He said that the story you posted refuted your "within the first few weeks of release" claim. Ronin followed up by saying that it is common knowledge that the Verizon version will come out in the fourth quarter of 2010. See post here.

By post 40, Bluespeed had changed the argument. See post here. Instead of arguing about the timing of the release, Bluespeed said that he would get the last laugh when Verizon picked up the iPhone. Of course, that was never the argument. The argument always had to do with timing ("within the first two weeks of release") not whether Verizon would ever pick the phone up.

At this point, Ronin got frustrated with Bluespeed's tactics. As a result, he clarified his position again in post 41 -- here.

In post 42, Bluespeed -- with a straight face -- made this assertion in regard to Ronin's position: "I clearly see you saying that what I said wasnt going to happen at all." See post here.

Bluespeed, you're wrong on this one. You changed the argument mid stream. If you clearly saw Ronin saying that Verizon was never going to pick up the iPhone, you were clearly reading a different thread.

As a result, I declare Ronin the winner of this Internet spat.

By the way, I am also available for playground fights, marital arguments, and business disputes. Hit me up on PM if anyone needs my services.
