But once it does come out I do suggest for people to visit an AT&T store and try it out yourself regardless of whether you plan on buying it or not..

Really ? You really think that ? It's like a Chevy dealer saying they are not going to carry a 2010/11 Camaro because GM stopped making them a few years before.
Now the fact that Microsoft and the experts know, WP7 is it. If WP7 is a floop, say "good bye" to Microsoft in the phone marketplace. Microsoft is going to spend MANY millions of dollars in advertising this fall, they have alreay spend BIG $$ to get all the game devlopers to make hit titles for launch and never mind facebook, twitter and everything else that will make WP7 what it is.
So by what you are saying, Verizon will hold not carry a line up of top phones that will have very heavy advertising (paid 90% by Microsoft), claimed by on-line reviewers as a possable iPhone killer because they had 2 phones that didn't sell well and were dropped ???? Never mind that it's not Microsoft making the phones, it's HTC, LG, etc.
Not trying to cause a fight here but, in what your saying, Verizon is going lose money buy not carrying something that might be huge ??
I would be SHOCKED if I didn't see at least 1-2 WP7 models on display at VZW stores on launch, it would be dumb for them not to.
