AT&T to have an LTE-Advanced network up and running in 2013

I believe all major carriers have announced that they will have LTE Advanced by 2013.

A software update that will never come. ATT will only include lte-a in "new" devices forcing people to spend more money.

Way to recant on your previous comment.

I'm guessing you work for AT&T.

Be careful before you insult people. IT actually seems as though YOU are the moron. AT&T's LTE rollout is actually ahead of schedule. Therer were supposed to be 6 markets up and running by now and they have 9 up and running.
Furthermore, I used the Galaxy S 2 SkyRocket and it is ridiculously fast over their LTE network.

It appears that YOU are a total idiot for basing what you think to be true or false on your personal opinion of a particular company.

Please leave your dietary concerns out of this conversation.

Nope. Carriers still wanna play dirty and run on their own frequencies, etc. and have handsets designed to only work on certain frequencies.

That's a great question Univice. I'll explain.
It is the same type of network but there has to be roaming agreements set in place by both carriers to allow their respective users onto their networks. It's like WiFi. Everyone has the same type of WiFi in their mobile devices. However, you would need to be allowed access to a neighbor's secured WiFi network to use it.

Well thanks to you both. I'll have to research it some more. It would be nice if the carriers would work together for the sake of their customers so that there wouldn't have to be duplicate costly infrastructure and all customers of all carriers would have the same connectivity if they had the appropriate radio.
