Initial reviews of the Verizon CDMA iPhone 4

The Verizon iPhone 4 officially goes on sale this February 10. Here are some of the initial reviews:


PROS:
  • Improved voice calling
  • Less dropped calls 
  • New wireless hotspot capability
  • Better sound quality 
CONS:
  • Slower data speed
  • Long text messages get split up to 160-character chunks
  • No simultaneous voice and data
  • Less compatibility with international networks
It looks like it's a choice between better voice calls or better data speed. What do you think?
