Not at this point. AT&T has exclusive rights to the iPhone. AT&T paid alot of money to hold this right, so you won’t hear of the iPhones being avaliable in another carrier anytime soon.
nope
The real answer to this question has nothing to do with exclusive contracts or any of that. The one reason that you can’t use the iPhone on Verizon is simply technology.
In the USA there are two main of technologies behind cell phone service. The first is CDMA which is popular in North America and parts of Asia. The second it GSM which is worldwide. Currently the only two GSM carriers in the USA are AT&T and T-Mobile, while Verizon is a CDMA carrier. The issue that would prevent you from using the iPhone on Verizon is that iPhone is hardwired as GSM. Unlocked you could use the iPhone on either AT&T or T-Mobile, but unfortunately, the iPhone’s technology is completely incompatible with Verizon’s service.
Don’t worry though, there have been some signs that iPhone’s exclusivity might be coming to an end (but don’t hold your breath it may not be for another year or two). In the meantime Verizon has some excellent new LG phones that you might want to check out if you don’t fancy switching carriers.
Nope, but you can check out different verizon phones here.
You can hack the i Phone and use it with whatever Carrier you want. It is basically very simple and everybody can do it.

Winpwn for windows and just follow the settings.

I found this two unlocked iphones and it says they are compatible with verizon, check it out.
the quick answer is NO. You can not get an iPhone to work with Verizon even if you find a way to unlock it. The reason is on because of the hardware itself. iPhone runs on a GSM-based networks such as AT&T and T-Mobile. It is also the most widely-used type of network around the world.
Verizon however has a CDMA based network. CDMA-based phones does not use simcards like those in GSM based phones. Therefore its harder to change numbers and such.
Right now, Apple has no intentions of switching to CDMA based network. This is also the reason why AT&T is chosen over Verizon by Apple to be the official and sole network for iPhone in the US.
