Re: Will upgrading require new hardware

said by MrMaster See Profile :

The article here assumes that the hardware only needs to be updated on the back end(or is it front end?)

Wouldn't we need new phones to also understand the new software?
It appears to be only a software upgrade, not a hardware upgrade. In theory, carriers would be able to send out a software update to the phones that is able to support the higher data rates.
