  2. The CDMA issue is completely trivial. There is no need to re-invent the wheel. The technology is widely available, implementations are well documented, chipsets are very cheap and, just like ALL other mobile phone makers make GSM and CDMA versions of their phones, Apple could do it in a second, with trivial expenses and time-to-market of at most a few weeks (plus some testing time).

    CDMA is NOT the primary issue here. I completely agree that there’s no chance we’ll see Verizon phone anytime soon, and for many much more legitimate reasons. CDMA is NOT one of them.
