Re: How AT&T Works vs. Verizon

said by treich:

Not true I contacted a Verizon employee she told me they will have "most" markets end of 2013 and all markets by 2014.

Well considering we still have 4 1/2 months left in 2012 and they have 75% of the population covered already.

You'll get it sooner than that. Verizon has been ahead of schedule. I'm not sure what part of Ohio you're from so I can tell if you have 4G near you or not.

Percentage of the population, and how many markets are covered are NOT the same thing...

Well including today they'll have around 370 markets covered. How many does at&t and Sprint have?

Also % of population matters. Would you rather have 50 big markets and 60% of the US or 200 smaller markets and 20% of the US?

Well I'm not arguing how many markets they have covered vs the other competitors, however I'd rather have the 200 smaller markets covered, and the reason why is because I hate traveling and as soon as I leave Dallas I'm stuck on 3G, granted Verizon's 3G is fine for my uses (Facebook, some MP3 downloading, updating app's, and YouTube) However it would be nice to be able to go to the lake house in Tawakoni and be able to actually jump on 4G and stream Netflix, or play Star Trek/Tera online.
