Verizon has more customers than AT&T, so what data are you using to state that Verizon has nowhere near as much traffic as AT&T? The difference in AT&T and Verizon is that Verizon has more towers and bandwidth in the majority of areas where it competes with AT&T. That and their are confirmed issues with the IPhone3G that was supposedly fixed in a patch. Remember Verizon first passed on the IPhone for these reasons along with a number of others (arguments over customer service control, profit sharing, etc.). On top of that the first IPhone lacked 3g because it simply wasn't ready to go. Apple may be the wiz at marketing and interfaces, but they still make a terrible phone when you look at it based on its merrits as a phone. The IPhone will peak with 3.0 unless Apple opens up to other carriers.
