Engadget: Verizon’s LTE Rollout is Imminent

Tech blog Engadget got its hands on some (alleged) internal Verizon documents late last week which detail the carrier’s 4G network plans.
The documents confirm what Verizon, and the New Edge, have already reported — Verizon’s LTE network will offer 5-12 Mbps downstream, aircards will be available before smartphones, and the carrier is still on track to serve 100 million connections and 30 cities by year-end.
But the docs also claim that the planned LTE isn’t just fast, it offers a minimal 30 ms latency too. The docs also note that we can expect 4G tablets in 2011 as well.
A pair of loyal Engadget readers and tipsters supplied the blog with (real?) shots of Verizon LTE SIM cards.
If the documents and devices are indeed legit, it suggests that Verizon is in the final preparation stages for its LTE network launch.
See the documents for yourself at Engadget.
