Finally, I'd be remiss if I didn't at least chime in on Apple's decision to sell its nearly-year-old iPhone on Verizon Wireless. Many existing iPhone customers are probably eager to jump ship from AT&T, and many Verizon customers have likely been waiting years for this day.
My advice is simple: Don't do it.
Apple ships new versions of its products on a very transparent schedule, and if you migrate to iPhone 4 on Verizon now, you find yourself on the leading edge of a two-year contract cycle just months before the iPhone 5 (or whatever it's called) is released.
But there are other reasons to wait. The iPhone 4 is buggy hardware, with a defective antenna and proximity sensor and other components, and there's no guarantee these will be adequately fixed until the next device arrives. The iPhone 4 is a 3G phone, and Verizon is currently switching to superior 4G (LTE) technology which won't work on the current device. Verizon, unlike AT&T, doesn't support simultaneous voice and data (on 3G). And Verizon's single iPhone data plan (unlimited for $30) is more expensive than the (admittedly less capable) AT&T data plans, which are $15 per month for 200MB of data and $25 for 2GB, which should be enough for just about anybody.
Long story short, just wait. You can do it.
