No phone on Verizon will support 4g currently. You must wait till Q1 2011 for the 4g phones to come out.

I don't think it'll take til Q1 2011 to see an LTE handset.... It will be Q4 2010 is my guess.

I didn't say widespread.... but in the select areas LTE rolls out... they're gonna need devices for it

They are planning on annoucing it later this year, so it will be cutting it close...

The last official words that I've read is it isn't going to even start until first quarter 2011. Everything else, every link, and everything else is speculation and rumor.
And it will take years to complete. If you live where I live you will get it in 2014.

But it was just a guess.
Jeez guys cut me some slack :icon_ devil:
Here's a dumb question....What do you think the odds are that the first-gen LTE handsets will be able to seamlessly switch to 3G and offer as good of quality as 3G only handsets?
I'd hate to have an AT&T-like device that is great around the house and lousy pretty much everywhere else.

I read that as well.
One thing I'm wondering....The rumored Droid Pro everyone is salivating over was slated to launch in Q4, so I'm wondering if that means it won't be LTE-capable.
My Droid is running pretty darn strong now....I won't be upgrading to anything but an LTE device, I don't care how awesome the other specs are.
Amen.
Though, you may really need those hotter specs once LTE comes out. It'll really suck if the phone is the limiting factor when internetting, and not the data pipe.
But, before I ever upgrade to LTE, I'm going to have to see what VZW's tiered pricing is. I like being unlimited right now.
