Transit Wireless in New York City currently operates around 36 wireless networks in underground subway stations across Manhattan and Chelsea. As of now, agreements with AT&T and T-Mobile allow for customers to never lose their precious Internet while commuting, but today, Verizon has hopped onboard. (more…)
Registration to be notified when LG’s newest flagship device, the G2, goes live on Verizon is now up. The G2 boasts some insane specs, all of which are top tier and should make anyone feel secure in knowing that their device will be a powerhouse until their next upgrade. The device is powered by a Snapdragon 800 processor, 2GB of RAM, carries a gorgeous 5.2″ 1080p display, features a 13MP back-facing camera with OIS technology (anti-shake mumbo jumbo) and has an incredibly unique button layout that allows the device to be ultra thin.

AT&T announced the availability of 4G LTE in six new markets this morning, spanning from parts of Minnesota on south to Ohio. It is nowhere near the biggest push we have seen, but AT&T is currently filling in some weak points in their coverage, with more launches expected to happen sometime in the future. They still have a bit more to catch up to Verizon, who is already busy trying to launch VoLTE devices, but AT&T is on their way. (more…)
The expansion of AT&T’s 4G LTE network continues today, as the company has announced that another 13 markets will go live across a variety of states. We’re talking new markets from California to Mississippi to Idaho and Kansas. According to AT&T’s website, their LTE network now reaches more than 346 markets, with most of the major cities already taken care of. It’s time now for America’s newly anointed “most reliable” network to start branching out to smaller towns and areas. (more…)
Ten new 4G LTE markets from AT&T popped up this morning, mostly in Oklahoma, Arkansas and Georgia. From the names of these towns, it’s a safe bet that AT&T is starting to hit the more rural (not as heavily populated) areas of America with most of the large markets complete. Over the past five years, AT&T has reportedly pumped a solid $100 billion into their wireless network in America, and for the most part, it’s starting to really show. (more…)
Subscribers in more than 40 markets should see 4G LTE on Sprint’s network this morning, as the company announced a massive rollout of LTE across the country. Sprint’s 4G LTE total market count now sits at an official 151, which technically puts them ahead of T-Mobile in terms of quantity, but we have yet to test the quality.
Customers all the way from Portland, OR to Jacksonville, FL should see a big change in data speeds, so if you are on Sprint with an LTE-capable device, let us know how the service is moving forward. The full list of cities can be found below. (more…)
I’d hate to call it shocking, but one of the most interesting announcements out of yesterday’s Google event was the fact that the new Nexus 7 LTE model works on Verizon, AT&T, and T-Mobile LTE networks, all from a single device. In the past, we have seen tablet manufacturers produce separate models when they tweak them to work on specific carrier network frequencies, but not with this one. Google has done something awesome.

AT&T announced seven new 4G LTE markets this morning, continuing the push to complete its rollout. Along with the announcement, AT&T also wanted to remind us that not only do they have America’s fastest LTE network, but it is now also the most reliable according to third party data. On Monday, that claim was taken quite seriously by Verizon, prompting them to take out a full page ad in the WSJ setting the record straight on the standards of reliability. (more…)
