Rumors! Rumors! Rumors!

Rumors abound on the web (like here and here and here) about Verizon Wireless and Apple teaming up for an iPhone in 2009, possibly even by MacWorld 2009 (second week of January for those who follow the Gregorian calendar rather than the Applearian calendar). This would be insanely awesome for me as I'm an employee of the former and an unashamed fanboy of the latter. If you're like me, and having trouble waiting for such a collabo (as the kids would call it these days), perhaps I could interest you in some coasters?
