Verizon just announced their LTE network will go live on December 5th in 38 US markets.
Initially, only USB modems will be able to access the LTE network (with handsets to follow in mid-2011). The biggest shock is the pricing. 5GB of data is $50/month. 10GB per month is $80/month!! And $10 for each additional GigaByte after that!
Are they on crack? With LTE’s increased speed, you’ll be able to easily chew through 5GB.
By making the monthly cost so high, they’re making sure that the public DOESN’T flock to this new technology.
