That's pretty good, but you still have the advantage that those LTE networks are not very busy.....when the LTE network gets as much traffic as the 3G networks, you'll start to see speeds decrease.

Yeah I guess if you want a cap of 5GB & non-existent data service outside of major metro areas. Trust me, been there, done that, got the T-Shirt. Had T-Mobile for 10 years & put up with horsesh!t data speeds or non-existent data coverage all over the country except major metros. Even there now, my new service with Verizon & my 4G LTE Phone blows them out of the water with speeds up to 30MB. No cap either! I used 13GB last month, my wife used 12GB for $30 minus corp discount. This month, 4 days into the billing cycle I already used 7GB. If you can find an account with unlimited data with Verizon to takeover on Ebay (like I did), DO IT before they no longer allow this. It's what I did & not looking back on those horrible days with T-Mobi...

T-Mobile's data network leaves a lot to be desired. I'd rather pay more but have coverage than save a few bucks and suffer horrendous or non-existent service.

Just my 2 cents on the matter...
