Wonder what % of ViP's are sold through Verizon stores vs. Apple stores.

One indication is that there is an equal number of Verizon and Apple stores within my - rather typical - urban area.

Now, if I were buying a Verizon iPhone, I'd buy it from the Apple store. That's just me cause in an Apple store I know what to expect. Never been in a Verizon store. No idea how many prefer that route.

As you know Apple actually waits to put out a product where the user will be able to have an acceptable experience with the feature. Not like Android OEMs who rush out LTE phones that drain the battery. When Qualcomms low power LTE chip is ready iPhone will incorporate it, they're not into spec pumping at the end users expense. That's quite likely the holdup on release of i
phone 5, waiting for the Q chip.
