If you're an AT&T, Verizon or Sprint customer, you can go to your store of choice and pick up an iPhone without a second thought, but T-Mobile customers have been left out in the dark as it's currently the only major U.S. carrier that doesn't carry the iPhone. But that could all change if what Merrill Lynch's Scott Craig turns out to be true.

According to Craig, T-Mobile may be announcing the arrival of the iPhone some time next week during their analysts day taking place on December 6 and 7.

Apple's iPhone landing on T-Mobile would be a positive for both companies in the short-term as T-Mobile customers who have been wanting the iPhone can finally snag it up and not feel left out and Apple would sell more iPhones. But depending on the deal T-Mobile makes with Apple to carry the iPhone, it could make or break the company depending on just how profitable they become after carrying Apple's iPhone. Until we hear the official word come from T-Mobile, all we can do is sit and hope the Apple gods smile upon T-Mobile customers next week.
