Palm Coast, FL | It's nice to see how aggressive AT&T has been with LTE I'd love to see LTE get turned on in Palm Coast, FL. We are right smack in the middle of two markets that were just turned on not to long ago. Come this way AT&T!  |

Re: Where are all the people that bitch? They're only complaining because Sprint's putting the little towns ahead of big cities. (Sprint hasn't launched LTE in NYC, San Francisco, Seattle, Detroit or Phoenix, but LTE has launched in oddball places like 'South Bend, IN')
AT&T has already rolled out LTE in almost every major city, so there's less to complain about when they roll out in smaller cities.
Smaller cities and rural areas are really all they have left to cover. |
|
| And the fact that Sprint is completely replacing/installing all new base stations as opposed to at&t that is simply adding equipment.. |
|
| 2014? Is it just me or did it used to be at the end of 2013, or is that Verizon I'm thinking about? (I'm not sure if big red is even going to upgrade 100% of it's EVDO network).
I feel like I got excited knowing it was at most another year before we had a nation wide LTE on AT&T but man, TWO years, that seems far off for some reason |

kudos:1 | Yup. AT&T originally said it would be "largely complete" with its LTE deployment by end of 2013 per: »www.theverge.com/2012/1/5/268476···lte-2013.... Doesn't look like that's happened...
Verizon will complete its LTE deployment by mid-2013, covering its entire existing 3G footprint, 6 months ahead of schedule: »news.cnet.com/8301-1035_3-575475···id-2013/

| Small? In all fairness, IIRC the greater Grand Rapids area (including the surrounding communities) is close to 1M people. Not that small. |
|
| NE TExas?!? How about turning LTE on in the NE Texas area?? Canton, Tyler, Longview, etc.???? |

Re: 2014? I must've missed all of 2013 since T hasn't completed their LTE build yet? Who knows what largely complete means to them anyways.
In all fairness it looks like they are building where the demand for service is high. They can't build everywhere at once.
Edit: My reading comprehension skills are lacking today.

Re: Small? Depending on your definition of greater GR, either 750K or 1.3 M. See »en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Grand_Rapi···tan_area. 1 M is a good number.... |

Re: 2014? Well that's sad. I didn't mind AT&T's lagging behind so much when I was thinking that in the end they would only been about 6 months or so behind Big Red in getting a full build out but now they're a full year or more behind them. |

Re: Small? Yes Grand Rapids is one of the only cities in Michigan that has sustained growth and I would dare so would be more profitable than any city on the east side. |

Springfield, MA | Maine got it first Portland (Maine) now has AT&T LTE, Springfield (Mass) does not have it yet. Verizon upgraded Springfield to LTE before Maine.
I used to have AT&T but I am now with VZW. |
