Not likely. You are better off waiting to see if an unlock can be developed for the verizon iphone.

I have a feeling that's for a 4G android tablet.

and there is no way to unlock a CDMA phone since it actually has to be activated the by carriers programing (*228 on VZW if I remember correctly) or by phone or carriers computer system, Sprint WILL NOT activate someone elses phone on their network

And, I'm not trying to push my preference on others, so I've got no reason to go and join an android forum to talk about how awesome iPhone is. That's like going to a KKK meeting and trying to show people the latest queen latifah movie...

It's not likely, but is still in the realm of possibilities. The Sprint CEO has declined to answer iPhone on Sprint questions during the last few weeks. He hasn't said no but has just avoided the questions.

If Sprint got the iPhone then I might be tempted to switch from ATT. But where I live, ATT actually has great coverage- perhaps better than Verizon, so I have no temptation to switch.

I'm currently with Sprint, but will be going to VZW to get the iPhone, unless Sprint announces they have one coming. AT&T has zero service at my house.

I think it would be nice if Apple opened it up to more then just Verizon and AT&T. I don't think Sprint's network could handle it, but you never know. My guess is the iPhone would need to be 3G only or have wimax unless Sprint adopts LTE, but that may be a problem as Clearwire is paart of sprin't and they are the ones who are charging the extra 10 bucks a month.

but hey, ten bucks or be capped out like everyone else?
