Metro to expand 4glte in Boston Market

[Pletua]

I got word from my sales rep that the boston market would expand its 4g lte to all the area that have our regular x1 coverage, beginning around mid August launching a new "4g for all" slogan. Not sure about any other markets.

It also leaves me to be suspicious if metro spent the money to build the towers or cut a deal with verizon.

Also expect more 4glte phones to be released below the $199 price point later this year.

I'll believe this when I see it.

We don't even have EVDO 3G around here yet...

Verizon uses different frequencies for LTE than Metro. Or used to... Verizon recently bought some AWS frequencies from Leap/Cricket, but I don't remember them being in the Boston area.

Should be in all the markets because i heard the same from my asr in tampa tho we know central florida LTE already covers mostly all of the 1x area i did also hear a phone with very similar specs to the connect for $99 which will be a killer deal ... When i say similar i mean dual core lte im sure not a connect for that low

This is very good news for the Boston area. MetroPCS speed and call quality is very bad according to this report. http://www.seattlepi.com/business/pr...880.php#page-2
