I've just read the iPad uses 700 MHz and 2100 MHz bands but in Europe we are going to deploy LTE using 800 MHz and 2600 MHz.
Is this true?
Is this true?
4G LTE wird von AT&T und Verizon Mobilfunknetzen in den USA unterstützt und von Bell, Rogers und Telus Mobilfunknetzen in Kanada.
US AT&T version and UK version have exact same specs.
The malarky is quickly spreading.For Apple to refer to their European iPad as 4G capable is malarky.
Do European carriers market their HSDPA+ networks as 4G?They should not be allowed to market their new iPad as 4G/LTE compatible in Europe.
Do European carriers market their HSDPA+ networks as 4G?
In the US, T-Mobile has been doing that for a long time now, and looks like AT&T is following suit.
Check out T-Mobile US's home page. They have zero LTE coverage in the US, yet they claim to be the US's largest 4G network.
HSDPA+ is called 3.5G here
From all us Europeans to Apple
Though kudos to the masters of marketing.... you have done it again, Awesome keynote, just a slight tiny issue you forgot to mention when you gave the WORLD a 4G Ipad...
I think the "marketing" is the issue;
Had they presented it as "LTE capable in North America, and 3G in the rest of the world" it would have gone down better. But they didn't. They bragged on and on about a Global unit, and showed amongst its tricks that it was LTE capable.

Yeah, that's weird. If you visit the Apple iPad page, and click on Features, there's a section header (in all languages) to says 4G.What I don't like is that it can be misleading, we don't have Siri or 4G in Spain and Apple does not advertise Siri here but they advertise the 4G capabilities that we are not going to be able to use, neither now or never. And the same goes to my fellow Europeans
