So, YES, the TP2 will work on the 4G network, and so will the HTC Snap (Cedar)!
First off, 4G is a marketing term, it is actually called LTE, which is neither GSM or CDMA but would be what you refer to as a 4G network, Second telus uses 3G EVDO right now and is switching to 3G HSPA not a 4G network. They have plans somewhere far down the line to launch LTE but the network they are switching to for the Van 2010 olympics is a 3G HSPA network. The TP2 could not possibly utilize a 4G network because there are no real 4G standards set right now in North America.

Noone is ganging up on you, you seemed to be misinformed thats all.
