Today, as expected, Verizon announced the imminent availability of the super-duper Verizon iPhone.
(Pssssst….Don’t tell anyone, but…) The first generation of VZW iPhones won’t be able to access Verizon’s 4G-ish Long Term Evolution (“LTE”) network.
Essentially, the early adopters of Verizon’s iPhones will have a three-speed transmission.
Fast at three speeds?
Yeah, sort of, but not as fast as the follow-on versions of the Verizon iPhone that will include access to the optimized 700 MHz LTE band. The next generation will have the 5-speed transmission with overdrive, and will have access to the carpool lanes.
Me? I think I’ll wait for the real zoomer when it’s announced in 4 or 5 months.
Let others buy the first generation of VZW iPhones and pay to replace them later. I’ll shell out my money only after the V.1 beta-testers have done their thing.
