For all you geeks who look ahead at new equipment before it comes out, here’s a review packed with specs for an upcoming LTE device from manufacturer LG:
The LG Revolution can only be described as the Verizon 4G LTE outsider. Does it have what it takes to become a success?

ZDNet: Five Reasons Why It May Be Motorola Mobility’s Time
Posted on 12. Jan, 2011 by Jay Witherspoon in Wireless Industry
An upcoming Motorola device connects here to a "gutless" laptop, and powers the device with its own processors and operating system.
The Verizon iPhone is getting the lion’s share of media attention this week, but here’s an interesting article about the prospects for Motorola and its upcoming wireless offerings, including a device that promises to bridge the gap between desktop and handheld computing. Given the processing power of upcoming mobile devices, it begs the question, “Do I need that desktop tower if my phone is just as powerful?” The Motorola device would connect to a monitor and keyboard, simply replacing the redundant processors and operating systems on your desktop. Smells like the future to me.
Summary:
Amid the hubbub over Verizon’s iPhone and the war with AT&T one of the biggest winners not named Apple may be Motorola Mobility.

Is RIM on the verge of a mass exodus from enterprise?
It would be one thing if Research In Motion Ltd. (RIMM) was losing spark on the consumer side, which it is, but alarms must be going off at RIM’s headquarters now that news is trickling in about losses on the enterprise side.
4G Debate: Coverage Is Key
Posted on 03. Nov, 2010 by Jay Witherspoon in 4G LTE, Wireless Industry
3G map above. 4G comparison will soon be just as staggering.
There’s some noise going on today about some other national wireless provider’s HSPA+ network. I think the company name starts with a “T.”
I’d like to point out to those who have already forgotten the Verizon “there’s a map for that” advertising campaign, that Verizon invests a higher percentage of its revenue in its network than any other wireless provider. And coverage for the entire country is a priority at Verizon. Remember the maps. 4G is only 4G if there’s a 4G network where you are, and Verizon is aggressively covering that map. For those who never travel outside of their metro home, coverage may not be an issue with another carrier. But you should be sure to check on coverage before you make a move for 4G, if connectivity away from your home is important to you.
There are going to be a lot of claims about 4G products in the next few years. Be sure to look past the hype and know what you’re getting when you choose a wireless provider. It’s likely you’ll choose Verizon if you look very long.
It will be a few months before 4G smartphones are available at Verizon because Verizon is making sure to create a strong network before launching 4G devices. It’s the smart move, and we’ll see the fruits of this move in the coming years.
