Re: Just two months ago... said by swintec:A matter of a couple of months ago there was stories here where Clear said they want users to use it to there full advantage, no caps, no restrictions, etc....Now this? What did they expect would happen? You don't go to a fat camp and offer all you can eat cake and limit it to one or two slices after you have everyone eating. Yeah, what happened to Clear's "100s of MHZ of spectrum" that all the shills were raving about? |

 | that is putting out to the EU. NOT in terms of what is being used for backhaul. But while we're on it; where is VZ and their LTE? OH! Still in the lab! OOPS! |

 | I agree. Who knows if LTE will even become what VZ or even ATT promise. 3g, 4g, etc are "good" but they cannot provide the kind of service that a cable, DSL, or FTTC connection can. Backhaul is another thing. Of course they are going to oversubscribe service to a point. But its another thing when it is done with abandon and then service (and speeds) suffer. I will give AT&T credit at least on their DSL service. It rarely slows down on me even in the evenings. |

 | reply to patcat88 nothing happened to it. They're just not using a majority of it at the moment. |

|
 | that is pre-LTE as everyone says about Clear. But otherwise its still in the lab as nobody is using it but OOOOO! MetroPCS. |
|
 | reply to patcat88 because like all carriers they don't have the bandwidth going to the towers. Smart reason eh? Next time think? |

 | reply to patcat88 again read above. |
