Yea LTE is sweet.

Any word on AT&T getting it around here?

[SpeckWrangler]

I haven't heard anything for a while. It's as close as baton rouge. I know it is our main focus but there were still a lot of major cities we ha to cover.

I was surprised Verizon got it here as soon as they did. We got it before Lafayette.

That's 4G. AT&T has some stuff between 3G and LTE they refer to as 4G, but on Verizon they have 3G or LTE. It's very fast.

Yes it is called hspa+ it's is three times faster than standard 3G. The reason you get the speeds you do on lte is there is not as much congestion on those networks like there is on 3G. This conversation 2 years from now and those lte speeds will slow down

According to Verizon LTE speeds should be 8-10 Mb/second download on a loaded network. That's still faster than a lot of home connections. I'm sure the same applies to AT&T in LTE areas.
