I think you misunderstand who cares about what. Verizon (and other carriers) care about contracts, customers, and the two year total, not the phone manufacturer.

If they can sell an iPhone or a Droid to a customer, with the same two year contract including data plan, they aren't going to care which gets sold unless there is a huge cost difference. And unlocked Droid X and iPhone pricing don't seem hugely different.

OTOH, Motorola is going to care a lot.
