Personally, I'm sitting on verizon w/o a contact (ran out last year) waiting for a nice handheld that's not a Bberry and gets good reviews. I would do an iphone, but there's no way I'm going to ATT. If anything Tmobile has the best service for work-at-home solutions with their @home hot spots. G1? maybe.

Most of the world's potential iPhone customers are still in the US, and it's clearly possible to have both a CDMA version and a GSM since so many major phones do it.

Apple should target worldwide sales instead of wasting recources for CDMA phone for a small US market.
