You may have heard that today Verizon has announced that it's getting the iPhone next month. There's one significant difference, and therein lies my question: do you use voice and internet access at the same time? That apparently won't be possible under Verizon as it will be limited to their CDMA 3G network. I don't think it will be a big problem for me, just wanted your opinions.

I remembered another point that I meant to make. Google promotes the Android OS as open source, but you can't post bug fixes and have them put in to the code base. They've totally locked down the code base. It's open in as far as your ability to write apps for it, but that's as far as it goes, so it's no where near open as the conventionally accepted definition would seem to indicate.

This is not to say that iOS is open source, just to say that there are no open source phone systems.
