They have enabled up to 42mbps in a few cities but in small town USA it doesn't matter because we don't have it anyway. The "4g" in Florence is around 14-21mbps, or at least that is their claim. I too am, and have been, upset with the corporate lies that are allowed due to advertising. The common consumer doesn't know the actual difference, it's just supposed to be faster now. I'm an AT&T user and I can't decide if I like Verizon's plan for 4g better or not. Verizon is rolling out LTE now and AT&T is focusing on HSPA+, like T-Mobile, but will shift its focus to LTE "by the end of the year." It's exciting if you're interested in the technology itself but disconcerting if you're not a common consumer.William.Russomhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/13454769104949840678noreply@blogger.com
