“An anonymous source has just given us an interesting nugget: A photo of what looks like the Verizon iPhone,” Adriana Lee reports for TodaysiPhone.com. “And that’s not all — check out the upper left corner. See what it says there? That’s right, ‘Verizon LTE.’ In other words, this looks like it could be a Verizon iPhone that supports the carrier’s 4G network.”
Lee reports, “Unlike previous fuzzy or out-of-focus leaked pics, this is an extremely clear image. But is it real? Well, we asked the tipster where the photo came from. He wouldn’t say specifically, but he did mention that the MacBook in the background belongs to a Verizon engineer in the Pacific Northwest region and that the handset is running iOS 4.2.”

I bet they pissed in their pants when they got this joke, thinking they broke a story here. Woo Hoo. They got had.
iPhone may be coming to VZ, but this photo is clearly a fake. Nice job!!
To prove it, I need to see what is under Settings –> General –> About.

Hey Just Continue to Sniff that Glue that u have Being Sniffing.
May (Steve Balmer) Continue 2b at the Helm of Microsucks 4 as Long as it Takes.
Yea it looks like an iPhone??? Duuuuuuh…
Photoshopped. Look at the edges of the iPhone and then the keyboard. Faaaaaakkkkke!!!!!
Count me in as another more wondering about ZT than LTE.
Anyone know how LTE is on battery life? Apple generally tries to jump to what’s next unless it’ll kill the battery (which is why they took their time on 3G.) They’re not averse to making the phone and letting the network catch up.
And since the original iphone it’s become a business generating circa $10 B in profits. So there’s no doubt they’re working on this… only question is what is ready for prime time.
You can get the carrier message to say anything you want. My baseband is hacked to say “GF&Y” in honor of our awesome network.
The fact that this story has seen the light of day is proof of how retarded people are.
Geez, I wish they would come out with it so all of these effing rumors would die!!!
When a jailbroken iPhone with the carrier name changed becomes proof that there’s a Verizon iPhone, things have gotten slightly crazy.
Anyone else notice it’s the 3G/3GS casing with a front facing camera?
I dare the retarded guy who release this so called real VZ iPhone photo to show me what is under the Settings –> General –> About page.
I dare YOU !!!
Anyone with a jailbroken iPhone knows you can change the carrier and phone number to anything you’d like. *Poof!* Now I have a verizon LTE phone, too!
