Tmobile's service its up to 50% cheaper than VZW. In real world phone browser use.. are you really going to notice that much difference between a highspeed Tmobile connection and a LTE one? Probably not. Tech geeks like us drool over this stuff, but the average user is going to see both as damn fast, but Tmobile half the price. And thats assuming that VZW doesnt innitially add another Tier to their pricing for LTE speeds. T-mobiles strategy is to squeeze out the best speeds they can from current generation tech, because its cheaper and it can fit into its pricing structure. They will at some point go to LTE when the price drops exponentially. Besides, both test faster than Sprints Wimax which is still barely off the ground almost a year later... and ATT isnt even in the game. you also have to take into concideration the price disparity.
