On the note of a iPhone coming to Verizon, the contract with AT&T is technically up in 2011 but no one will know until Q1 2011.
droid x is technologically more advanced, technically. Wifi tethering for free when you root it, better camera... I believe the processor is quicker with better overclocking support as well.

edit - you can wifi tether on an iphone too, didn't know that.

See the camera, I heard wasnt and Im a professional photographer so thats my concern, anything will be better than my blackberry thats for sure, but I want something that will allow me to have my photos on and show potential clients, good color, ease of use customizable easy to download aps and use.

Showing pictures on the screen is great, but the camera on any phone sucks compared to a DSLR.

I just want better picture quality than the BB, it looks like my Blackberry is shooting at 2000 ISO all the time.

lol

droid x has a bigger screen, but the iphone screen has a higher resolution and is ridiculously clear.

you can get free tethering by rooting your X... it just uses your data plan. I read iphones can do it too.

I am talking just features wise, hardware wise phone B coming out 2 months after phone A will always have better hardware.
Other features like tethering are limited to the carrier and we all know how much AT&T loves giving us features that are useful.
