The AWS frequency (band 4) might be up and running in the area a if your phone supports the frequency.

I think you're right. I have an iPhone 5S and I just found out the 5 series does support AWS. I'd never heard of AWS til now much less that Washington was about to get it. This is a big deal - it's faster than my WiFi speeds at home.
