The carrier currently uses HSPA+ as its next generation data network, offering speeds higher than Sprint's 4G.
"We’ll look towards LTE at the right point in time for us," says Neville Ray, T-Mobile USA’s chief network officer. "That ecosystem is going to be much richer than the competing one from WiMax, which is really a niche play."
Verizon and AT&T should have LTE networks in place by the end of 2011, while Sprint currently uses WiMax.
Speaking about HSPA+, Ray says: "We’re not waiting for the technology choice, we have the right technology to deliver that experience today."
