I am stuck with Verizon as a carrier b/c I live in a rural area & they are only ones with decent servive BUT I would really like an iPhone - mainly for internet while I am on the road. I do have web capability + mp3 on my LG VX8300 but the screen is tiny. My dad has a Palm Treo, and even that screen is so-so, I think the page rendering (software?) is pretty bad. ps-I am "techie" & internet is part of my job, not just entertainment. What does Verizon offer as a competitor to iPhone?
