Just heard a Dec. 6 date. Can't confirm as yet, and that still seems way early, but stranger things have happened. AFAIC, LTE can't come soon enough.
12/6 is the LTE network launch date. Originally it was 11/15. It was set back fir law enforcement certification as they have to be able to comply with any subpoenas and some stabilization.
it would be great if they launched it with lte in dec my wife will me mad that i would buy another phone but hey it would be a great birthday present
