Comment on Did Google Pre-Emptively Block a 4G iPhone on Verizon?parent

Yeah, they'd have to be unlocked (does it also need to be rootable?). But they already allow pretty much any app from being installed. The apple app store rules could be contrived into protecting against apps which might be dangerous for the network but that's far fetched and would soon be attacked.

It won't be hard for Verizon to find an android device to meet the rules. But iPhone is definitively a challenge if I understand how the rule is interpreted.
