It's just a rumor, nothing set in stone but, I would sign a 2 year contract for a phone like that.....

Sprint as a carrier is very weak in my area, so they suck in my eyes...

Verizon has the better coverage and much better network, so they cost more but, coverage is more important in my eyes and Verizon is worth the extra money.

Personally, I'd be shocked of Vzw got a kick ass WP7 device and Not AT&T or TMOUS.... I am not going to get my hopes up, LTE ? It will go to AT&T...watch

@DavidinCT
I don't have sprint anymore I switched to TMOUS because of the barely useable speeds.

Oh So you have the HD2, HD7 and many other very cool WP7 devices. Us verizon users only have 1 choice, same with Sprint.

So, Why do all the GSM carriers get the cool phones ?

More expensive carriers or not, you still have a better selection of WP7 devices that any of us CDMA users have....

The fact is, I dont count on Verizon getting a cool phone like that, They have their heads so far up their A$$ with Android or the iPhone they dont care about anything else....

I think VZ is starting to care more about WP than sprint is, at least they attended the Nokia conferences and are trying to get them to make an LTE phone. As far as GSM goes it is the world standard so all manufacturers will naturally consider it first then after that comes CDMA. TMOUS is the black sheep of the GSM carriers because of the 1700mhz frequency they use for the 3G/4G

Yea, yea, yea...I Know....but, it still sucks... Sprint/Verizon, they both have their heads up Android and the iPhone's a$$, Sprint even more that they have it.

Oh, yea, I waited what 8-9 months to get a WP7 device and got the bottom of the barrel...

Screwed again by CDMA. At least LTE should change that, as it seems like it will be the new standard but, you cant roam each others network (Vzw and AT&T wont allow it). Even that will take 5-10 years for full network coverage (remember how long it took to go from Analog cell to digial ?).

It will be interesting if Nokia and Vzw get together on this but, I seached over every thing I could find on this Ace/900 phone, NOTHING at all stated Verizon, a few sites said AT&T but, not one said Verizon...

Take this with a grain of salt... Put it in the rumor pile for verizon because that is all it is...

how is it the bottom of the barrel? It has a bigger screen than the Arrive, is a world phone and has 16GB of storage. I don't know about the analog to digital transition of cell because i didn't really even start seeing people with cell phones till like 2003.
