Re: Why

for competition. LTE has the same issue that wifi and existing cellular has - it's a very shared medium, meaning that the trial and theoretical speeds will rarely, if ever be seen in the real world.

Fiber is still the most stable, upgradeable connection right now.

As for what i'll be doing in 2011 - if they're offering 4g in the city i'll be living in, you bet i'll be consdering my wireless company as my primary data provider soon.

It is also much more secure in the "Last Mile" (ie: The connection between the User and the Tower [in this case]) since your connection can be monitored by listening to the radio transmission unlike fiber which where you have to monitor the transfer by "wire tapping" or at the router.
