| I Left Verizon for the iPhone
And I'm not sorry -- I find the iPhone to be the perfect device for my needs -- but I really did like Verizon's network coverage and quality better.
If Verizon starts offering the iPhone after AT&T's exclusivity expires, I may switch back -- although naturally I'll have to get a CDMA version of the device.
Verizon's billing (particularly in regards to the customer account management area on the Web) and support was vastly inferior to what I now have with AT&T, though, in my admittedly limited experience. -- "I'll follow the law until it's just stupid." -Ted Nugent |

I'm not tied to the iphone, just the 'open' features. It simply is the better phone for me on the market by a wide margin.
I switched from Verizon, I felt that they gave me the better coverage, but their prices are pretty terrible (company as a whole). I'd switch back if they had something similar to the iphone,or the iphone itself.
In general, cell phone companies rank right up their with meter maids in my ranking of dislike. |

They give you the illusion that its open because you can buy apps, but thats really just a (very good!) marketing ploy. I must be honest however, all future phones will need to have a marketplace of sorts now that its been introduced. If apple allowed any apps (as the Google phone apparently will) then I would agree that the iphone is 'open', but they dont. -- If history teaches us anything, it teaches that simple-minded appeasement or wishful thinking about our adversaries is folly. -Ronald Reagan-
