I don't get it but why is Verizon even selling 4g service when they only have released one 4g phone...the HTC Thunderbolt so far? I think they jumped the gun on wanting to be a provider but not having the goods to do so.

I'm most definitely NOT a VZW employee. If a post answered your question, please mark it as the answer.

Because 4G doesn't really do anything for calling, it is for the DATA network. Verizon has been selling multiple 4G data modems I believe since November.
Additionally, Verizon has started to advertise the Samsung Charge, so I would assume that this 4G phone will be released soon.

what happens when you change the subject line in an existing thread - let's see Answer: It does not change the subject of the original post (thread). Too bad, i hate all caps posts - other than vision issues - which happened once when I asked why , and should be addressed on the client screen using the accessibility options available on most system. I just find it plain rude to post that way. So if you don't have problems seeing, be polite! If you want to yell at a Verizon employee, do it privately. IMHO, This here is not a place for disgruntled customers - it's for customers who want to help each other with genuine technical and Verizon policy issues. These issues are best addressed in a constructive, civil manner. The final redress for any individual vs. a mega-corporation is a,. not doing biz with them, b. filing a complaint with the relevant federal, state or local regulatory agency. And of course, via the press or an independent website.
Now, onto the question, there's no reason to push the limts of technology on a device with a tiny screen and limited silicon horsepower. Watching HD video on a 3" screen with earbuds, is not my idea of a good time. And how fast to I need to download two minute mp3's. For on-the-go business people, fast mobile , wireless connectivity is a great tool. Wi-fi is not a true mobile technology - it's wireless in your living room. At least I ranted in lower case. albeit a long-winded rant.

It appears they are waiting for their tiered data plan to kick in before releasing more.
