Yeah, 6 months ago, I would have agreed with you. Now even the Wall Street Journal is stating that Verizon will have the iPhone, so it is moved a little past speculation in my opinion.

I give them a little more credibility than all the "blogs" on the internet saying the same.

Yep, I tend to agree, Apple does controlled leaks, and they're trying to "freeze the market" so they'll have more sales when it is available.

Jobs is a master at manipulating people and positioning Apple products. (I don't have to love the guy to own the stock :) )

No one outside nerd forums/circles is aware of Verizon iPhone rumors.

And people that read the WSJ, Forbes, people that watch ABC, NBC, CBS, etc...

Every time Verizon & the iPhone are mentioned in the same sentence the stock goes up 3 points...

I've only had a HTC Droid Incredible for 24 hours, but it's been an amazing experience coming from a Blackberry Storm.
