I'm aware that the Verizon network is the one with most bands, but having to finish the activation process in-store (for any carrier version)... while i'm not in the US.. might be a bit of a hassle for me. The wait line is right now by November. I think if they get out the factory sim unlocked soon, there would be another queue... and i would have better chances to even receive it sooner than the carrier backordered ones. (counting that they release the int factory unlocked version this month.. hypothesis.. not sure what would happen)

So i'm just crossing my fingers for the factory unlocked version. Sounds reasonable? Or any other ideas?
