Really? Every other network? I mean, Sprint has two, but they're both 4G phones. T-Mobile, I think, has one not yet released, but it's an HSPA+ phone. Seeing the trend here? Plain ol' 3G need not apply. Oh, there's the iPhone 4 but that's Apple imposing its will on AT&T. It's restricted to wi-fi for a reason. Don't count on any other AT&T phone getting a front facing camera any time soon. I'm sure one or more of the half-dozen LTE handsets due in the first half of next year will have one.

I think that Verizon will start to offer these kinds of phone when the LTE network (4G) is launched next year. The phones are data-intensive, even compared to normal smart phones, and don't work properly on 3G.

Yea but aren't the front cameras added to their 4g phones only? Plus You can do it with verizon 3G as well but you have to use the back camera.

Nope. check out the Transform. It is not a 4G phone.
