Verizon CEO on Apple, LTE And The iPhone

The Wall Street Journal:

Mr. Seidenberg said his embrace of LTE has drawn the interest of Apple Inc., and helped Verizon get the iPad. But he didn’t comment on when Verizon might get the iPhone. “If the iPhone comes to us, it’s because Apple thinks it’s time,” he said. “Our interests are beginning to come together more but they have to take steps to align their technology with ours.

Meaning: it’s not up to us, we want the iPhone. I know the folks at Cupertino are testing a Verizon-compatible device, but we’ve been told to wait.
