Who's to say that Verizon will be the only one getting a touch CDMA blackberry this time around. I'd say that Verizon does a poor job of marketing the Storm 2 (or they just avoid marketing it) since the wave of Android swept over their lineup. Also with the addition of the Iphone on Feb 11th, I think RIM would be foolish to think they're going to get the sales teams to push any touch berries at the consumer level.

Theres alot of competition in their in store lineup at Verizon and the sales people want the easy sell which isn't always Blackberry when it comes to new customers. RIM needs to spread the love if they hope to maintain a strong non enterprise consumer base in the US.
