I believe they still have a contract with AT&T until 2010 so maybe next year...

You connect your iPhone to your Mac/PC to get an internet connection anywhere. Not available in the US yet though because of AT&T.

Nope, never.  I am almost certain there will never be a CDMA iPhone.

^he speaks the truth.

Verizon is rolling out LTE though later this year. AT&T is in 2010. If we see an iPhone on Verizon, it'll be on LTE/4G. Even if we don't, it'll theoretically be possible (once an LTE iPhone is released) to jailbreak and unlock it for use on Verizon.

As long as the iPhone is only available on Rogers I will not own one.  Their service is sooo bad here.  When I'm driving to my parents place (about a 3.5hr drive) I don't get service for about 2.5 hrs.  Any time I'm not driving on Highway #1 or in a city, I don't get service.  Screw Rogers.
