Was that article written by a 17 year old or what? Also seems to be an old article, since Verizon has already launched their 4G service.

might be, there was no date listed for the article; though some of the iPhone 5 details were new to me (assuming they are indeed true).

I'm going to edit our the first few paragraphs.

Verizon has their 4G service, but the iPhone 4 on Verizon is 3G only.

So alot of the new features are what alot of other phones have had for a while now.... and still nothing on flash? After using iphones exclusively since 2007, I'm glad I dumped it last month.

I doubt it'll ever happen. Apple just revamped their own webpage with HTML5 elements to get rid of flash.

as far as I know they only offer 4G to wireless internet access users.

So far Verizon offers No 4G droids, BB, ect...

Hoping 4G comes sooner then later.
