Verizon iPhone tear-down posted, reveals Qualcomm Gobi chip! (GSM Worldphone compatible!)

We, with the iPhone 4 repair specialists at iFixyouri have done a quick teardown of the new Verizon iPhone and have found the Qualcomm MDM6600 chip inside. That’s kinda interesting because that chip is dualmode GSM and CDMA compatible. Since the Verizon iPhone doesn’t have a SIM slot, it probably won’t be doing GSM duties, but it all but guarantees that the iPhone 5 will be dual-mode, perhaps one phone that can be used on both Verizon and AT&T (and obviously every other carrier outside the US.)

In fact, why wouldn’t Apple use this chip in its upcoming iPad 2?
