http://emperor.tidbits.com/webx/tidbits-talk that it isn't likely that there will be a Verizon iPhone in the near
future. Even though Verizon says that they will start to deploy their
4G LTE network next year, that doesn't mean that there will be
sufficient network coverage to base an LTE iPhone on. Also, people
forget the other half of the equation, which are the chips. Remember
the iPhone debuted with an EDGE chip, because the then current 3G
chips used too much power.

As you pointed out in your article, it is really a two piece puzzle.
Mature network, and mature hardware.
