Fingers crossed that T-mobile won't be too far behind. I really love my T-mobile plan.

I assure you that your T-Mobile plan will not be available for use with a T-Mobile iPhone.

If it doesn't actually happen on Tuesday, I will refuse to get my hopes up ever again.

Hopefully this time it is real - not because I am going to buy one but because the "analysts" can finally shut up and end their endless hype/crusade of Verizon iPhone.

Device specs for the Verizon iPhone 4 can be found here:

EDIT: Just so I can understand what I've done wrong, would one of the down-voters please explain why the specs leaked in March/April last year are not relevant? Thanks!

I am absurdly excited about this, mostly because I am in hate with my Droid.

However, the gmail and contacts integration on Droid is top notch. Am I going to be less happy on iphone?

This is total speculation; back in Sept. I was thinking about the white iPhone 4 and how it was delayed. I can see it only being available on Verizon (for a limited time) followed by specific colors for different carries, much like KitchenAid does for their blenders.

I would be surprised if Sprint and T-Mobile didn't have the iPhone within the year (if Verizon does indeed get it soon)

I'm crossing my fingers on T-Mobile. I gave my mom a jailbroken iPhone 3G a few months ago, after she returned her third consecutive T-Mobile feature phone in as many weeks.

She's never been happier with a phone ('so easy to use,' 'doesn't make me feel like an idiot,' 'so many capabilities'), and I'd love to get her onto an up-to-date one with 3G data capabilities.

I'd just tell her to move onto AT&T but, in my experience, their network in the Twin Cities is even worse than San Francisco's.
