Many are expecting an iphone 4G announcement from Verizon at the next CES 2011, in early January, which will be held in Las Vegas. There has been news that Verizon CEO Ivan Seidenberg will hold a keynote speech at CES.

The Verizon iphone 4 will be similar to the current iphone 4, but will have addition of  “alternate wireless technology” (CDMA, LTE). It is said that this technology is the only way the Verizon network can talk with iPhone and it is supposed to be a faster /inferior technology.

This addition will give it an upper hand over the CDMA. So a 4G-LTE iPhone is perfect for Verizon and plans to offer coverage in some 38 major cities before the end of the year.

In December 2010, the iphone exclusivity deal expires. This provides more possibility of Verizon/iphone deal becoming a reality. We will have to just wait and see.
