Why is it that this rigorous testing doesn't take place prior to the release of the product?! Doesn't it make more sense to have such testing done so that the release of a product doesn't result in an increase in customer service calls and DOES result in increased customer satisfaction? I'm sure some testing does take place, but...
A law suite! OH my, I needed a good laugh today. I am a Verizon customer, but don't really use the 3G network myself. In my travels, I have noticed that Verizon has a 3G signal in places where the 1x signal barely exists. I would agree that it does have a great 3G network.
I am also an AT&T customer. I only use my AT&T line for voice. Rollover minutes are great, but based on my experience over the last 43 months I don't think I'll be renewing my contract.
Do we really think Verizon would release a CDMA iPhone so close to LTE being up and running?! a CDMA/LTE iPhone maybe, but seems more reasonable that the iPhone would be LTE.
Unfortunately, this seems to be a trend for Verizon and the phones they release. New phones are released far too often, in addition, these phones are buggy.
Verizon, other carriers, test phones before you release them and not just to see if it'll connect to the network.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I just switched to Sprint from Verizon about three months ago for the Pre. Then I went for the Hero about a week ago. Now, I miss my hardware keyboard and am thinking about switching to the Moment. I am still able to switch back to Verizon if I want and get the Droid when it arrives. Should I just trade up to the Moment when it comes out, see if I like it, and if not switch to the Droid? Or something else entirely? Help!"
