8 exclamation points in two and a half sentences huh? You know there is this little thing called a period on your keyboard. It's located 2 keys to the right of the M key, directly above the ALT key. If you need further directions let me know and I'll try to be more specific......

You have a full keyboard at your finger tips. It's not hard to type a few extra characters to look at least a bit educated. God help you all if you get a desk job that requires you to type something.

That's different. It's a job. Of course you are going to do it right.

You probably work for one of VZW's competitors anyways, xcalibur. So let me get this straight, you would leave a company so close to LTE launch and lock yourself into a 2yr contract because of a WINMO phone? Because we all know that WINMO is NOT the way to go. lol

Well, the fact of the matter is, Sprint will have Wimax, Tmobile's 3g when completed will be highest standard in america because of frenqencey and umts,hsdpa, and wcdma, and AT&T is currently updating therir 3g to european stndards which is way faster than american 3g. LTE is GSM based. All AT&T and Tmobile has to do at that time is minor updates which will leap frog into LTE. Verizon has to build a whole new GSM base factor in which you may ecounter the cost there of. Possibly

Facts & Truth, Your leave out some important information. WiMax will be ahead of LTE by about another 12 months but once LTE launches it will make WiMax look like an endangered species. The data that has been collected shows that LTE is much more faster than WiMax. Now as far as ATT&T goes, I agree with you that they are in fact putting a lot of money in improving their 3G speeds to make them faster than other carriers. However, this is coming at a cost. They're timetable for LTE is expected to launch a minimum of a year after Verizon launches LTE. The infrastructure for Verizon switching to GSM will be no different than what ATT & T and Cingular/Sprint and Nextel have been going through in order to get all of their customers under one network. They all the existing customers of the current carrier to continue to use the existing cell towers and as they come in to upgrade they will either purchase a hybrid device (similar what Verizon will offer with CDMA/GSM) or go completely to GSM depending on the time frame.

Yes this is true to an extent. ATT already has the infrastruture for LTE. So, Verizon has to get ahead of the the game because it will take them much longer and a whole lot more money to get into motion because they are cdma and lack the proper infrastruture unlike their co owner Vodafone. And U see what Sprint did. I was reading on Saturday night that when in motion it wont be much of a difference in LTE and WiMax. I looked at some of the speeds that are out right now and compared them to upoming LTE and personally I didn't see a difference except in technology and that it 30% cheaper to build and it wont be a world standard so far.

So let me get this straight ICanAffordVZW, you probably work for VZW, and you say that WINMO phones are NOT the way to go. So, you most like are a retail sales rep who owns a useless blackberry device... the only thing that blackberry has that winMO doesn't completely trump in every way is BBM. Windows phones have more ram more processing speed, more functionality, are cheaper to run from an IT standpoint for an Exchange server, are easier to develop applications for, and proved at least 100X more customization to the device... but you are right... WINMO phones are totally NOT the way to go.

I do work for VZW, but I am not a retail sales rep. WINMo devices need more RAM because if they dont have it, then their phones r u n v e r r y s l o w. My last reason why WINMO is not the way to go is that: Name a windows device that is worth its purchase price. Treo? HTC Touch? Diamond? 6900? 6800? 6700? MOTOROLA Q...?lol
