Verizon Interest in LTE - Don't Be So Hasty

1. Verizon seems to be doing the big corporate always a bridesmaid, never a bride.
2. Why? Sprint seems to be in real trouble and a friendly, now "so-called open" Verizon is trying to look welcoming to the only other CDMA's around.

3. Verizon seems to have been put on the back foot by Google - and stayed there using words, not actions to appear otherwise. Their chairman said they are even going to GSM - what decade???
Verizon could have swallowed their ego and worked with Google and made a real strategic coup (tho I doubt they could have worked with an innovative customer oriented partner), but they didn't.
4.IMHO, it's all a dream waltz, or if you prefer, lots of sound signifying nothing!
