Why Cingular?

GSM
GSM is used in over 185 countries, in Europe, Africa, the Middle  
East, Indonesia, Australia and much of Asia.

Only a handful of countries use CDMA — the USA, a few Asian  
countries, the Caribbean and parts of Central and South America

Full lists of carriers globally can be found here   http://

Not to speak of the growth of 3G in the world generally and the up  
and coming 4G tech

Verizon uses CDMA and Cingular has a better (for Apple) roadmap to the
future.

Besides, we have no idea if Apple went to Verizon and said, "Do  
this....."
and Verizon said no. Remember, the Cingular CEO bragged that he had  
signed
the contract with Apple without ever having seen the phone. Maybe  
Verizon
balked at the contract terms from Apple.
