Verizon and Alltel

[Jack1064]

I am currently with Verizon, but want a "good" smart phone and do not see one of the new ones that I like with verizon, I read the tutorial for changing the Sprint Touch Pro over to the Verizon network, but I am a newbie to all this, since I have never had a so-called smart phone before. And doing all that to a phone seemed a little overwhelming to me! What do you guys think will happen on the 9th, when Verizon takes over Alltel, will I be able to buy the HTC Diamond from Alltel? Or something like that, just curious as to what you all think about that!
Thanks
