It seems like it'll be midway through '08 until the first Android phones will be appearing anyway, and I expect a CDMA version for Verizon to be a decent amount of time behind that, based on things like how long it takes to get the pearl and other phoens that appear on other phone networks. <br><br>It's a great step for Verizon, I just expect it to be very slow. So it really comes down to how soon you want a new phone vs possibly having to wait a year after android comes out to get one.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[John]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 5th 2007 10:12AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon gets behind Android, still iffy on Open Handset Alliance]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/04/verizon-gets-behind-android-still-iffy-on-open-handset-alliance/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/04/verizon-gets-behind-android-still-iffy-on-open-handset-alliance/</guid><description><![CDATA[I misread that as "Verizon gets behind Android, stiffy on Open Handset Alliance"]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[CaptSaltyJack]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 4th 2007 7:16PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Verizon gets behind Android, still iffy on Open Handset Alliance]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/04/verizon-gets-behind-android-still-iffy-on-open-handset-alliance/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/12/04/verizon-gets-behind-android-still-iffy-on-open-handset-alliance/</guid><description><![CDATA[a cliche but "I told you so":<br><a href="http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/27/verizon-wireless-opens-network-to-any-apps-any-device-in-2008/comments/8994956/" rel="nofollow">http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/27/verizon-wireless-opens-network-to-any-apps-any-device-in-2008/comments/8994956/</a>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Generic]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 5th 2007 9:42AM</pubDate></item></channel></rss>
