NEWSBig Verizon Announcement: iPhone Coming to Network in February!

Jan. 11 2011, Published 8:34 a.m. ET
It's an age-old debate — Blackberry vs. iPhone. It's rare to see any of our favorite celebs without one of these devices in hand. Kim Kardashian is always Tweeting updates from her Blackberry, while Ashton Kutcher and Demi Moore (the king and queen of social networking junkies) always have their iPhones close by. Verizon announced today in NYC that their customers will be able to purchase the iPhone 4 beginning in February. Will Blackberry users make the switch? What does this mean for AT&T?
Verizon CEO Lowell MacAdam confirmed everyone's suspicions today.
"If the press write something long enough, eventually it comes true," MacAdam joked during the press conference, via the Huffington Post, as he introduced the iPhone 4, which drops at Verizon on Feb. 10.
