Verizon iPhone? I’ll Have 10 Million New CDMA iPhones [New Rumor Says Apple Is Already Producing 10 Million CDMA New iPhones]

Whether Apple is going to announce an iPhone 4 / 4G / HD made entirely for Verizon or not, one thing is certain, the web is buzzing with details about the CDMA iPhone, so at least some of it has to be true. The question is, when will Verizon launch the device? In June, September or early 2011?

According to a report that comes all the way from Taiwan, Apple already has a company building the CDMA iPhone for them. And it looks like the company in question is Pegatron Technology and Apple has ordered no less than 10 million units already. Sources that won’t reveal themselves say that these orders should bring lots of cash to the manufacturer in August or September. Does this mean that Verizon will launch the iPhone late summer / early fall?

Pegatron is a spin-off of Asustek and the two companies will be listed separately on the Taiwan Stock Exchange on June 24. Why is that important? Well the same report that talks about a potential CDMA iPhone says that Pegatron hasn’t been doing so good lately and a 10 million CDMA iPhone order per year from Apple will surely help the company come out of a rough spot.

Don’t expect Apple, or Verizon for that matter, to confirm any of this, but, like I said before, a CDMA iPhone will happen sooner or later and there’s nothing AT&T, or anyone else, can do to stop it.

AT&T will surely start selling the next-gen iPhone this June while Verizon will have to wait a couple of extra months to get it. But what’s a couple of months on top of the three years Verizon has been impatiently waiting for the device?

Indirectly this is bad news for Sprint and T-Mobile too. Unlike T-Mobile, which doesn’t have a strong iPhone competitor yet (the HTC HD2 doesn’t really count and neither does the Google Nexus One), Sprint will start selling the HTC EVO 4G on June 4. But will the carrier be able to fight both a GSM iPhone 4G and CDMA iPhone 4G later this year?
