As a Vermonter, I am disappointed.RU482 - Thursday, September 6, 2012 - link
Now if the pricks could consistently provide reliable voice service at my office or at my house, I'd be impressedbill4 - Friday, September 7, 2012 - link
better than overcharging hundreds of dollars for garbage phones like verizon does, and then still having worse voice, more drops, and worse data speeds (like verizon does)djc208 - Thursday, September 6, 2012 - link
Nothing in VA, not even around DC. Guess it's either Verizon and more money or stay on Sprint and worse service.thomp237 - Thursday, September 6, 2012 - link
Anchorage, Alaska before Detroit. I knew most companies hated Detroit but wow. Just WOW!My list of companies that hate Detroit:
In-N-Out Burger
Chick-Fil-A
New Belgium Brewing Company (recently rectified)
Yuengling
and AT&T
Feel free to add to the list :)

I live in Albany, NY, and if it makes you feel any better, we don't have any of those companies in our area either (in fact, the only one I've ever heard of in-N-Out Burger). At least we're getting LTE by the end of the year. I guess I'll have to get a new phone that supports it.kmmatney - Thursday, September 6, 2012 - link
No Chick-Fil-A? In-N-Out is thinking about coming out to Denver/Boulder. It would be like printing money if they did.deeznuts - Tuesday, September 11, 2012 - link
You are not missing anything with Yuengling. It was so hyped and when I made it to DC and finally had some, I'm thinking, WTF is everyone talking about?I'm spoiled in San Diego for good beer, but seriously, it was bad. Very generic tasting.

On the Available Today list, there are other areas that have LTE enabled already and are not on that list, so I believe that is just a list that had LTE Enabled today.For example, Canton, Ohio has it and it is quite nice here.
Is there any way to tell what is deployed in a given area (such as 10 MHz. or 5 MHz.)?
