Will need to watch this closely. I am eligible for an upgrade in March. My contract with AT&T expires sometime in June, I think. I am using the old 3G model now and am having phone envy issues. |

I want to get the new iPhone this summer. So it will only be with Verizon? I get better coverage here with AT&T. What about the monthly data plan price? |

I'll get rachel the v5 when it comes out. She'll be ready for an upgrade by then. She's had her phone 3 years now. |

So, how fast is 4G? And I wonder if the new iPad will support it. Edited by George K, Jan 8 2011, 06:44 PM.

George: 4G depends on a lot of factors... Sprint is using a different technology than Verizon and ATT for 4G, so there's that component. Sprint's using WiMax technology (similar to your home's wireless network), so its 4G coverage depends heavily on location, and whether or not you're inside. 4G deep in the bowels of a hospital for example, may be completely different than just 100 feet away, outside (though I think you've seen that with cell coverage as well). I can get 4G on one side of my house (near the window), but not on the other - for example. I get it all day cleanly at work though, and I often tether to that connection for my Internet connection, because it's faster than our DSL that we provide on our public wireless network (I use my personal laptop for coding, which means I can't be on the company network). My "real life" speeds (as measured by speedtest.net), are between 4-6 Mbps down. |
