   The report YOU submitted clearly says the dual SIM issue does not   
   affect ATT and T-Mobile customers, only VZW customers.  It probably has   
   something to do with the VZW CDMA network, whereas ATT / T-Mobile use   
   GSM networks.   
      
   I suppose you /could/ stretch this into faulting Apple for making VZW   
   compatible phones and not fully testing them with VZW, but any logical   
   conclusion leads to the problem being with VZW's network.
