Why do they need to expand LTE coverage if the iPhone 5 will still be using iWiFi from 2009?

AT&T will add green bay, and Milwaukee by the end of the year. I hope Madison gets added soon though.

sprints time table"when we feel like it"

Sprint's timeline, ASAP. Does not seem like they are delaying; they can't blanket the entire US in a day. It took Verizon a while. Sprint is late to the game for their own reasons.

No Sprint LTE in the greenest city in the US??? (Portland, OR)
16. ZayZay posted on 16 Sep 2012, 10:14 0
I'm shocked because Portland was one of the first with WIMAX. Ever been inside the Rose Garden? Full WIMAX Signal but couldn't get it at my place in inner SE.
17. codymws posted on 16 Sep 2012, 10:35 0
Maybe Sprint didn't get as many WiMAX customers in Portland as they had expected, so their putting Portland on the back burner for LTE.

What a shame, 100 cities and California doesn't even have one listed.

Once again no Phoenix Arizona which is one of the most populated cities. First Wimax and now LTE damn shame

I feel bad for Sprint customers who will be stuck on Sprints terrible 3G service on their new LTE iPhone. Wuah Wuah!

At least new customers heading over to Sprint still have the option for an unlimited data plan unlike Verizon customers.
