I didn't set out to invalidate your post, just to offer an explanation as to why, in the US, the iPhone isn't offered on any other network but AT&T, and what would need to happen for that to change.
It sounded as if you're not convinced that the iPhone will ever be available on any network other than AT&T. Given that Verizon is by far the largest carrier in the US, I can't imagine Apple not wanting a piece of that action. But fact remains, Verizon is still on CDMA, and that tech has had its best days.
As Steve Jobs said at D8:
"Apple is a company that has succeeded by choosing which horses to ride technically, that have a future, that are headed up. Different pieces of technology kind of go in cycles. They have their springs and summers and autumns and then go to their graveyard of technology. We try to pick things that are in their springs."
