Clayton Morris today colored in the details behind his claims of ongoing Verizon iPad talks with word of why the carrier was absent from the launch and its future plans. The Fox News reporter claims that AT&T simply "outbid" other carriers by agreeing to the $30 unlimited and $15 250MB data plans. It's not evident what might have led Verizon to miss out on the deal, though it's allegedly much more concerned with getting an iPhone deal than a 3G-only device like the iPad.
