If Verizon's LTE network is truly that fast with those latency's, it iwll completely and utterly destroy Sprint/Clear's current 4G network. does anyone know what frequency this LTE network will run at?
it just gets better! Since the Sprint/Clear WiMax runs at such a high frequency - the penetration of the service into buildings is...lame. I do enjoy using the 4G service on my EVO, but this LTE really seems like it is going to eclipse WiMax in every way. Unfortunately that probably includes price too. VZW and ATT are consistently more expensive than Sprint per month.
@Nick Brown you forget that Sprint has a mega shitton of spectrum that they can use for deploying a lte or wimax footprint. The nextel merger will greatly benifit them in the 4G wars They literally have 4 times more spectrum to use than Verizon;s 700 mhz. Nextel had a monolopy on 2500hmz and had a 800mhz to boot
@DefPoet great point. Nt to point out 2. That because sprint is wrking with higher frequens they need to set up mre towers per square mile to fully penetrate buildings unlike verizon. This might sound bad n might slow the time it takes them to cover up land mass vs verizon but as time progresses n mre people use 4G this well benefit sprint n clearwire becuse they well have twice as much backhual ready for all that increase use of the 4G network. Unlike verizon well have to go back. Ad a tower or increase the size of the current. Witch might create some problems for the users n the network. P.s. I'm for sprint n clearwire. This battle is just begening. But I believe at the end of the day this has to do abt bandwidth sprint has 150mhz vs 91 for at&t n 89 for verizon. Deep pockets well help but on the long run it's all abt bandwidth. (150mhz jst for the 4G netwrk. Nt adding 3G cdma. Iden. N 2.5g cdma for sprnt)
@biohazard43 hahahaha. I live in dallas texas. Just moved frm northern mexico. English is way mre complicated then spanish. Especially writing. Got the speaking n reading part down perfectly. All practice mre
The whole line-up consists of the $60 Amps in-ears and $100 Tracks on-ear headphones, which both also come in slightly souped-up and pricier HD variations at $100 and $130, respectively.

@Nick Brown 700 mhz for both AT&T and Verizon

@saddam3
sprint is set with money If google, timewarner, comcast.intel actually keep their commentments
@saddam3 While you have solid information, speak in English or GTFO. I seriously just got a migraine from reading that.
