Leak reveals cities that will be covered by T-Mobile's LTE on March 26th
On Friday, we told you about 9 cities that had apparently started receiving T-Mobile's LTE signal. This was based on information received from OpenSignal, a crowdsourced Android app that announces where to find  wireless coverage. T-Mobile is expected to officially launch its LTE service this coming Tuesday at a major event that should also include the introduction  of the carrier's new pricing plans.

On Saturday, a leaked internal document from T-Mobile revealed the first seven cities that will officially offer T-Mobile LTE starting on March 26th. The cities are Las Vegas, Nevada; Phoenix, Arizona; San Jose, California; Houston, Texas; Washington D.C.; Kansas City, Missouri; and Baltimore,Maryland.

Initially, there will be three LTE devices offered by the carrier. The Samsung GALAXY Note IIreceived a software update last week that allows the device to have connectivity with T-Mobile's LTE signal. On March 26th, T-Mobile is expected to launch the BlackBerry Z10 which will also run over the operator's LTE pipeline. Also on March 26th. the T-Mobile Sonic 2.0 HotSpot will be released with LTE support. Somewhere down the road, a new version of the Samsung Galaxy S III is expected for T-Mobile with LTE support. That phone has already received FCC approval.
