IN YOUR FACE cdma!

Yea in your face LTE = UMTS = CDMA! So your happy that Verizon is abandoning CDMA in favor of the next version of CDMA. Yea....

Trent, why do you say LTE = CDMA??? They are nothing alike...

The good thing is that they're running with the GSM association. This should mean that they'll be a lot more competition in the US market - between both the carriers and the handset manufacturers. You might finally be able to use some of the great high-end Nokia, Sony Ericsson and (yup, you've guessed it) Apple hardware on Verizon.
Of course, this is still a long way off. By then everything might have changed. Maybe Qualcomm will completely disappear up their own asses never to be seen again. Maybe Verizon will go bankrupt. Maybe carrier-controlled telecoms will be a distant memory.

Xbit-
It won't happen. If it does, and VZW sees some cool hardware from SE, Apple, whatever, you can bet it will be locked down tighter than Guantanamo. Verizon will disable half of its stock abilities and load it up with their horrible RED operating system, strip any cool unique features to the device. Typical Verizon style. Don't expect anything to change because of this announcement.
