Today at the CTIA Enterprice & Applications show in San Francisco, Verizon Wireless will unveil the plans for their upcoming 4G LTE network. I decided to skip the event to attend the official unveiling of the Logitech Revue, but you can still follow the Verizon announcement live online.
I’ve heard that Verizon will announce LTE service in 30 NFL cities, but no Android devices will be talked about. There should be a couple of LTE modems and that should be about it. Verizon and Motorola are working on a LTE tablet, but we do not expect that till Q2 2011, so it might be too soon to announce.
