Already live in Gainesville

I was in Gainesville at a hotel 5/31-6/1. I got LTE on my iPad; speeds were comparable to anywhere else I've used LTE. Now it could be that Verizon doesn't have the entire city lit yet, but my bet is that the market is very close to complete already.

In any case, I like it when, over a 1250-mile trip between Fredericksburg, TX and Fort Pierce, FL, I spent a ridiculously high percentage of the car ride on LTE. Not bad for it only being eighteen months after Verizon first launched their 4G network.

That last paragraph in your post is exactly why I
left ATT in 2010. ATT is lazzzy!!! Similar customer
base, similar revenue, but that's where the similarities
end.
