Verizon's LTE Reportedly Planned To Launch November 15th In 30 Markets

According to some sources speaking with Engadget, it looks like Verizon is moving right ahead with their 4G plans, and sticking right to their schedule. The new report suggests that on November 15th, Verizon will flip the proverbial switch on their Long Term Evolution (LTE) network, and give up to 30 markets access to the next level of data speeds.

Sure, that means you'll have to wait until the end of the year (pretty much) before you get to experience 4G speeds on the Verizon network, but at least it's better than nothing. Along with the launch, Verizon is supposedly bringing two data cards into the fold as well. There's no mention of what kind of handsets we should expect to see, unfortunately, and for many folks out there, that's the icing on the cake.

As for markets, 30 is the number being tossed around right now. Obviously, you'll expect to see 4G in New York, Los Angeles, Chicago, and Philadelphia. On top of that, the launch is also going to include up to 10 airports, so that all of those travelers can have their own 4G fun before they make their way to their next destination. Nothing is confirmed by Verizon quiet yet, so stay tuned.
