so I was over at this thread (http://androidforums.com/showthread.php?t=673297) and found this:

By March Boost Mobile will have LTE. At least that's the word from our Regional Rep.

Virgin Mobile will get it shortly after. Though they may decide to give it to them first since Virgin Mobile already flopped on the WiMAX introduction.

I think that T-Mobile will likely give LTE to their prepaid but it's a question on pricing. It's highly unlikely it'll be unlimited considering they've made the true unlimited move with their HSPA+. That's what I think anyways.

So means we might be getting LTE soon. But I plan to move to T-Mobie soon cause if Sprint 4G isn't in my area then I know LTE won't be.
 
Kahroo, from my experience with living in NJ...be careful of where you are when you get it. Where I lived, T-Mobile had zero service for a 10 mile radius. Something to keep in mind.

LTE rollouts will still happen, WiMax is kind of a dying thing now.

Oh I know where I live T-Mobile has 4G cause my friend and her family are on T-Mobile and she has 4G

Yeah, crazy right? Jersey is one the most densely populated states in the union, but we still have huge 4G holes. BTW.... There is no 4G in my neighborhood. :mad:
