So, just to surface the question.......

Will Verizon ever get the windows phablet (1520)?  I hate the idea of switching carriers (as does most other folks) so my gut is that I wouldn't.  Heck, I would love to see the Asus phone/tablet combo (even with Android).

My assumption is that no, Big Red still won't, but hey, I am an eternal optimist (maybe that's why I'm still sticking wih WP).

Don't hold your breath.  The next Windows Phone device coming to VZW won't be till February 2015 and its the mid-range Lumia 735.

If VZW were to get any flagship devices it won't be till next year when Windows 10 is released for the phones.

Heck they discontinued the Lumia Icon for strange reason.

That's what I was afraid of.  I have to say that of the three (A, iO, WP), I've enjoyed my Windows Phone experience the most.  I'm rare I'm sure, but hey, we all have tastes.  I am one that is further rare in that I'd like a 6-inch phone.  Not positive that a lack of a device is a reason to switch, but others do have great coverage in my area.  Oh, well.  Decisions decisions.

They might get it, but it will come with WP7.
