Difference Between AT&T GSM iPhone 4 and Verizon CDMA iPhone 4

Earlier today, Verizon announced the much awaited arrival of iPhone 4 on their CDMA network.

As you know by now, feature wise the new Verizon CDMA iPhone 4 is exactly the same iPhone 4 which was launched back in June on AT&T’s GSM network.

To make it work on a CDMA network, Apple naturally had to make some changes. These changes are very minor and very hard to spot at first, most of them were required to make the Apple iPhone 4 work on a CDMA network. Read more…

Live Coverage of Verizon's Media Event, Verizon iPhone Expected

REFRESH YOUR BROWSER!!!

As we all know, today Verizon is holding a media event where it is widely expected to announce that it will begin offering the iPhone, marking the end of AT&T’s exclusive distribution for the device in the United States.

Of course, there’s always a chance that Verizon just wants to reveal more details on LTE, or talk about the company’s commitment to openness and Android… but according to the rumor mill, it’s time for Big Red to get some Apple magic.

The event is scheduled to kick off at Lincoln Center in New York City at 11:00 AM Eastern Time, or a little under 30 minutes from now.

Verizon does not appear to be providing live video or audio coverage of the event, and thus observers will have to rely primarily on text and photo updates coming out of the event.

It is a speculation / rumor (still) that Verizon is expected to introduce the long-rumored Verizon iPhone at their press conference today. No one really knows what will go down at this Media Event but we’re here to cover it and see where it goes.
