You might want to hold off on getting the Verizon iPhone or Android phone

I was looking at the Verizon 4G roll-out list and I was shocked to see that out of only 49 cities in the country that Verizon is rolling out it's 4G, Cleveland and Chattanooga are on the list! That inspired me to share this info with you all. This post is relevant for both potential iPhone and Android purchases with Verizon.

First, the hopeful Verizon iPhone owners, the question is this:  do you want to get an iPhone that is already more than half-way through it's life cycle and locked into an older 3G network for 2 more years?  I am apprehensive to recommend it (as are many in the industry) because there is a likely chance that in June, there will be a new iPhone which does do 4G network speeds and will have better hardware.You've waited this long, what's a few more months? Patience seems to be rewarding in this instance.
Secondly, Android will be rolling out some 4G phones starting in March. There will likely be dozens to follow in the months afterward. Here's some things you should know before getting your next Verizon phone and why you might want to practice some patience:

• 4G phones will be out for Verizon starting in March with the HTC Thunderbolt.
• 4G is going to be at least 10x's faster than the current 3G...possibly even faster than your home internet.
• 4G will allow you to talk and use data at the same time (cannot do so with 3G phones).
• 4G might come with an extra monthly charge (it did on Sprint up until this week)
• Many dual-core Android 4G phones coming soon, these have 2 processors, similar to your desktops and laptops, should be very fast.

So yea, that's my spill...just wanted to share with those that are trying to decide on getting a new phone yet or not. Shalom.
