GSM network vs. CDMA network.  BIG difference.

Sorry, a GSM (AT&T) phone will not work on a CDMA (Verizon) network.

Thank you for your inquiry. We also wish to thank Ann154 for her good input. Adding to what was stated, we do hope you will select Verizon Wireless as a your provider of choice and our iPhone as your wireless device. While there are opinions of the iPhones offered, its the network that differentiates our service from another service provider when you use the device. This also go with considering many services and products available on Verizon Wireless to address your personal wireless needs.

I am providing you some links that can be referred to that show Verizon Wireless is the best carrier to be on with your iPhone.
