Verizon Is Said to Be Planning to Announce iPhone 4 on Its Network

Verizon executives announced on a keynote presentation on the consumer electronic show in las Vegas that the company will start selling the iphone 4 soon. They did not announce when they are going to start selling it. The fact that the exclusivity agreement that at&t had with apple is coming to an end is going to affect the company's revenues exponentially. I personally think that this is a smart move for Apple. Verizon is a strong company and distributing their crown jewel trough them will boost their sells a lot and help them to compete against the Android.
