So I just read this in another carrier forum and I thought I'd share. I know a few of us have been asking this question lately.


CEO Gary Forsee said:
"The 4G network will be four times faster than today's EV-DO network. And at these speeds, it's all about lighting up new devices. Imagine accessing YouTube.com and MySpace.com literally on the fly."
