With almost two years to go before it reaches that end-of-year 2013 expansion target, the carrier’s flipping the switch on an additional eleven markets across the US, as well as completing coverage in New York City.
This isn’t related to Apple’s questionable decision to let the iPhone 4S display “4G” in its status bar since the iOS 5.1 update. 4G LTE isn’t yet supported on any Apple iPhone, though it is supported by the new iPad which ships this Friday.
I was looking at AT&T’s coverage map today to see their 4G/3G coverage areas. It was really hard to figure out which shade of blue in the legend matched which shade of blue on the map.
So I broke out xScope so I could be certain which one is which. Quickly found… that the legend does not match the map.
