Verizon Network Handles New iPhone Users Well

TUAW reports that Verizon is doing well with the addition of the iPhone 4 on their network and the inevitable new users that followed. In fact, Verizon’s network performance change was minimal, only less that one percent slower based on browser speed and page load times.

It’s been calculated that 500-700 thousand new iPhone 4 users are on Verizon’s network currently. A very plausible reason for the absence of a significant drop in network performance is that many current Verizon users just upgraded to the iPhone 4 and much less of those 500-700k users are new users, likely hacing switched from AT&T.

Behold, in all it’s glory, the first commercial short teasing the Apple iPhone’s availability on Verizon Wireless. “To our millions of customers who never stopped believing this day would come… thank you.” For those of you who held out on signing that two-year contract with AT&T, give yourself a pat on the back. For those of you who didn’t.. ouch..

Verizon iPhone 4 Confirmation and Release Date

Should you Wait for the Verizon iPhone 4 or iPhone 5?

Verizon is holding an event in New York City, many invitations went out to media sources recently that confirm this. The rumor is that Verizon will finally announce iPhone 4 on Verizon Wireless. Assuming that this is the case, you’ll be sure to have big lines at your local Verizon Wireless locations.

The question is: Should you get the Verizon iPhone or wait for Apple to announce and release the iPhone 5? Lets think about this.. Apple has a track record of release the next-gen iPhone in June-July. There’s no reason why we should doubt that it will happen the same time this year. If you sign that contract too quickly, you might regret it within a few month. It’s up to you.

The time is probably better spent hunting down iPhone 4 contests and sweepstakes rather than signing on the dotted line and shelling out the cost of the iPhone plus taxes, fees and activation.
