You can get them unlocked, but seeing as the only other major GSM carrier is
t-mobile you arent really gaining any ground except for a cheaper rate.

It's also a pita as far as software updates go. You also end up with super-slow data speeds on Tmo since the iPhone doesn't support their higher speed data standard.

I'll believe it when it happens. Its been talked about and "confirmed" for years now and still nothing. Even at that I've seen at least three different dates for it to be announced this year. Not saying it wont happen, just that I don't believe any of the rumors about it anymore. On top of that Verizon is sooo expensive that I would never go through them anyway.
