Verizon expanding its 4G network to new cities this week

Verizon has announced that it is expanding its 4G LTE network to a few new cities this week.

New cities to get the fast mobile Internet are Pensacola, Mobile, Denver, Montgomery, Gainesville, Tallahassee, Philadelphia, and Fayetteville-Lumberton, NC.



The carrier launched the LTE network in 30 major cities last year and tests have found it to be faster than AT&T and Sprint's rival networks.

Verizon has hopes of rolling out its entire network by the end of 2012.

  Looking very forward to eventually having 4g in my area. Verizon may have hopes of being finished by 2012 but I highly doubt that.

  I had sprint 4G and now have verizon 4G in the Dallas Fort Worth area and Verizon's is twice as fast or faster on actual real world speeds.
