We don't know the exact performance stat on the snapdragon because qualcomm has been late for more than 1 year on delivering it.
Are you suggesting that we should have waited on an iPhone until Qualcomm could deliver this chip to Apple?

But what I can tell you is that the first couple of generations of iphone clones that were on Verizon's network --- had smaller batteries and was thinner.
I?ve never read about these clones, but it?s irrelevant as it doesn?t mean that the device had the same duration of use as the current their current offerings nor would have been as efficient as a CDMA/CDMA2000//GSM/W-CDMA iPhone.

No, I am saying that we don't know what we don't know.
If there are performance problems, Apple could have used "traditional" set-up with separate application processor and baseband processor with a CDMA radio.
This whole discussion started because someone said that including a qualcomm chip would add $40 per phone. It would only cost Apple $5 million to design it and it is not going to cost a lot more per unit to make a CDMA variant.
Oh yes AT&T I really feel for you. You're multi-billion dollar iPhone gem is such a hog, and users are so selfish and needy....
No....I pay AT&T over $250 a month for 3 people. They can go take a flying _ _ _ _ at the moon. I deserve every bit of bandwidth I can get and more. I'm PAYING for it.

If we did so I wonder when would we get an iPhone..
