It's Tuesday Morning, Time To Make Porn (Jan-11)

[Simon]

Good morning world

Just back from bank and grocery store, then had to close the windows here at the house and turn on the a/c since it may be up to 80ºF here today (then down to 52 by tomorrow night). Lots of fog here this morning too, and strangely it was floating about 30 feet above ground level.

I wonder if the CDMA version will mean that Sprint could get it too at some point (since I've been on Sprint forever).

Wishing good luck to all who need to travel back to the East coast from the Vegas show since the new storm may close some airports up there again.

Glad we don't have to shovel fog.

It is not likely Sprint or TMobile will see it. However, Verizon and Sprint share the same network frequencies, and allow each other to roam on the other's network, so, you could be reasonably certain you could get decent coverage. It is Apple's policy to not sell the phones without a contract..

Now, technically since CDMA doesn't support sim card locking, you could buy an CDMA IPhone, have them activate the IEMI on Sprint's network, but, Verizon is still going to require that contract. Easier though to probably switch to Verizon.

Buy a prepaid verizon phone and test it in the areas where you are going to be if you think that you're really interested in switching. I'm sort of glad I didn't do that when I got the G2 (which I returned 47 hours later) because I wouldn't have realized how productive that phone could be and I probably wouldn't have purchased a G2 to unlock to run on AT&T had I not gone through that process.
