WSJ: Verizon iPhone will offer unlimited data

This is awesome. It'll force AT&T to do the same, or risk losing customers. Hopefully it does the same for the price. Hopefully Verizon drops the unlimited data to $25, then AT&T adds it back.. for $25, not $30.

I also heard that the Verizon iPhone will come with a purple unicorn.

How things change, couple months back and everyone couldnt wait to dump AT&T now that verison might finally be getting their slice of the pie and milk subcribers for all their worth people are sarting to warm up to AT&T.

For me, I am interested in what verizon has to offer. I will hold off switching until I see what the iPhone 5 has to offer and who will have it. Does not make any sense to get roped into another contract just before a new generation phone is released.

What is more interesting to me is that once Vzw has the iPhone, the iPad cannot be too far behind.

I dropped AT&T months ago and hacked my iPhone, and the data cap is what sealed the deal. If VZW goes unlimited, hopefully AT&T will have to follow suit.

There'll be no concurrent phone calls and web browsing (i.e. data use) on Verizon's 3G...

Well it won't lure me to Verizon, but maybe AT&T will match it.

If Verizon does get the iPhone, it will be a CDMA iPhone. So it won't be neat.

I'll believe it when I see it.

Give my unlimited data AND tethering and Verizon will have another ATT switcher.

As you all probably know, we can buy factory-unlocked iPhones in the UK and choose which network to go with. The advantage is that you don't have to go with an iPhone-specific plan with just one network.

My plan costs £10 ($15.50) per month and I get 600 minutes, 600 SMS, unlimited landline and data (fair-use & capped at 750MB -- basically the data slows down) so I can afford a £15 per month data plan for the iPad (10GB per month).

I wonder if Apple will produce a "universal" iPhone and start selling unlocked iPhones everywhere, including in the US.
