Re: so guess what my verizon Rep Told me ;)

I was reading that sprint turned down LTE for their 4g. Are they changing their minds now?

A few months back, Sprint said they are going with WiMax, but their system could be switched to LTE with very little effort. Looks like they are hedging their bets. If it is that easy, sounds smart to me.

what always confused me though, if it's so easy, why didn't they just go with LTE in the first place?

I think it was, and this is just my opinion, because when they were deciding which technology to go with at the time, WiMax looked like what was going to be used by everyone. Today of course, LTE seems to be the future. I am sure there was something to do with partnerships with other companies mixed in there, but this is all speculation from my end. I just think that if Sprint was truly smart and did think ahead on how to jump ship in the middle of this techno advancement, it was very smart for them.

Re: so guess what my verizon Rep Told me ;)

Sprint probably has no choice but to switch to LTE just because the phone manufacturers aren’t going to waste R&D on WiMAX for a little carrier like Sprint when the rest of the world is on LTE. Since the big two (ATT and Verizon) on switching to LTE, you can pretty much guarantee LTE will be the standard for the USA.

Mark my words, once VZW goes fully LTE say around 2011 or 2012, the iphone contract with ATT will have ended and that is when you’ll see the iPhone LTE being sold by all carriers here including T-Mobile and Sprint.

VZW Iphone in January?

Bloomberg has just reported that Verizon will be carrying the iphone beginning in January. Sounds like an old tune being played again but they reported that they had confirmations from two sources.

Engadget is also carrying the story and it can be read there.
