Verizon iPad?

[goobot]

wow this turned into a pretty big att vs. verizon war real fast. the point im trying to make is, not everyone spends all their time in big cities, which is where att provides their 3g. Verizon does do this, and even in colorado has 3g where att has no service at all. So i am gonna hold out for the possibility for the ipad to come to verizon so i can actually get service. i dont care about how fast it is, all i care about is it working. The place where 3g would actually be nice, in the mountain cities where there isnt wifi everywhere, is where the 3g is needed. and that is exactly where att doesnt provide it. i honesly couldnt care which one is 2 seconds faster than the other, just which one has more coverage. and that is where verizon is better.

its a lot more than 2 secs. any way like i said if you look at verzion's map. its only is bigger in the desert.

also like some others said version will not get the ipad, so you will be waiting forever.

have you ever even been in the desert? it isn't only bigger in the desert, its bigger pretty much everywhere in the west. and im just gonna wait and see till they announce new iphones if theres a verizon connection for ipad. and it cant be more than a 2 second difference, it doesnt take more than like 5-6 second to load a webpage on my droid. how can you be such a fanboy of a cellphone company, when they are all just raping everyone. $20 a month for unlimited texts is just pure theft.

took from another site


"Verizon cheats. Go to their site and check the maps. First, it is really difficult to figure out what is voice-only, what is slow data, what is broadband data. They hide behind their own naming for these services ("Voice and Messaging", "Enhanced Services", "Broadband and TV"), and it is really impossible only show the fastest coverage; they will only overlay that image on top of the slow network coverage, so there are fewer white spots. This is extremely, extremely low.

I took the time to capture this map (with fast network coverage), bring it into Photoshop and remove the colours representing slower, non-broadband network coverage. The end result isn't all that great, has plenty of white space precisely in the same places as AT&T, and when you compare AT&T's EDGE with Verizon's slow network coverage, AT&T may even have an, well, edge."

Yeah... real hard to figure it out isn't it...

arguing about coverage is the dumbest thing in the world let alone trying to prove that Verizon is secretly lying about their 3G coverage. buy what works best for you

I heard that Verizon is going to get the ipad. I know someone that works there, and they said it is a known fact within the company will offer the ipad.

Anyone else heard this?

I know someone who works there too, and he said it's a known fact that there won't be a Verizon anything from Apple until they've completed their LTE roll-out.

This is what i am thinking too cause it is gonna be a world standard. Looks like another year probably. I just wish they would support the bigger network. Its not like everyone is gonna leave att to get an iphone on verizon.
