It has been speculated that LTE will NOT be tiered and all 3g users in their current contract will not have to pay for tiered service.
I don't see the big deal, as by the time LTE is rolled out my contract will be eligible for upgrade and I will be going for an LTE phone which will be unlimited until everyone switched from 3g to 4g, this wont happen over night and most people who are the "data hogs" will be switching to 4g anyway, leaving the spectrum open
Non issue- for the people it will affect, it will probably lower the bill....
