Is iPhone worth switching to ATT June 30, 2009

Sad, sad story: while camping with the kids, my beloved Palm Centro took a dive -and I’m not talking in the pool, not that it matters. Water damage is a death sentence to a cell phone. I had no insurance. I followed the prescribed care: how to save a wet cell phone  to no avail. I’ve come to accept that it is dead. I have been a loyal Verizon customer for over a decade, and the rest of my family and most friends are on Verizon. My dilemma? Well, I have two choices: to buy a new Palm, or Blackberry or other PDA offered through Verizon (excluding the iPhone, because it is with ATT exclusively). OR, I have been coveting the iPhone since its birth, patiently awaiting the day it becomes available through Verizon. Should I jump ship early and buy the now $99 iPhone, and pay the $70 early termination fee? It’s just that I was with ATT once, and it was not good.

 Is it worth dropping Verizon and going with ATT to be an iPhone owner?
