Why Verizon?

[nerdyessence]

You're getting unlimited data on Verizon?

Yes. Did an AOL (assumption of line) by looking online for people who were trying to get out of their VZW contract without an ETF.

For me it was coverage based on my travels for work. Plus Verizon gives employees of the company I work for a 22% discount on your talk & text plan & also a 22% discount on your data plan. This helps as I'm a "full retail payer" for life ( or until they take it away ) in order to keep my unlimited data.

Been with Verizon when it was AirTouch. However I stay with them since they have the best coverage, LTE and I have unlimited data.

You still can't talk and surf though. And my friend who uses his phone as a gps unit always gets the gps knocked off whenever a call comes in, frustrates him to no end.

This article is about the iPhone. Most if not all Android 4G phones can talk and surf on Verizon.

Sent from my second brain.. Okay it is the only one working.

Sorry..I misunderstood you. Didn't realize you were talking about the iPhone. My bad.

My question is WHY can't the iPhone talk and surf while android can.

Because Apple doesn't want iNerds to be able to.

Just another feature the iphone should have had but isn't there so they can charge you more later on when they add things that should have been there already.

Because the iPhone 5 doesn't have the hardware required for simultaneous voice and data on Verizon's network. It was a conscious design choice that minimizes the differences between the Verizon/Sprint iPhone 5s and the GSM iPhone 5s.

I work on the indirect side with VZW and the discount is 50%.

Next question; why is Verizon land line service so poor? They lways rank high on the wireless side but my parents have had nothing but problems with the land line side of Verizon.

Because Nynex sucked before it became Verizon. I also doubt they spend much on the analog infrastructure, they'd rather their customers get Fios where available.
