For legions of iPhone-wielding AT&T haters, the nightmare is over. The iPhone is coming to Verizon Wireless on Feb. 10.

After years of rumors and tons of wishful thinking, Apple’s iPhone 4 will become available on the Verizon network, which is consistently rated higher by consumers than AT&T’s network. The launch will end an exclusive deal held by AT&T since the iPhone was first introduced in 2007—dramatically shaking up the wireless marketplace.

Qualified Verizon customers can begin pre-ordering the iPhone 4 on the Web starting on Feb.
