Okay, I thought more about this and this is why - Verizon is CDMA and AT&T is GSM. GMS carriers are activated by the SIM were CDMA (as of this point are not - except the new R-UIM which is only available in Asia.)

I can change devices and put my SIM in different phones and Blackberry's and activate myself. Not so CDMA... thus the "prompt" for login on a GSM phone. There is no point on a CDMA device - they are not "interchangeable.")

There's the difference...
