Word is from ALL AT&T stores I've gone in contact with, the managers have said the reason for the push back to November release is because next month LTE will be pushed out to the big cities here: Frisco, Sac ect.. and were getting the LTE version. Im guessing this is going for South Texas as well and wherever else it's not being sold. They got this information from the company and not something they just pulled from their as.ds. And no it never had anything to do with the iPhone. - Just a heads up for those whos still waiting on an upgrade and thinking to get this phone. Why not get the LTE version instead of the 6 month old one? I've came in contact with about 7 AT&T stores all around the cities out here from the bay area to the valley areas and it just makes sense.
