Is it to much to ask that Apple respect the local industry consensus in the different territories they market the product?
I though this was all supposed to clear up when Europe united under the EU banner. Are you telling us that "EU" is just marketing smoke-and-mirrors?
/kidding, of course
1. Not everyone watches Apple keynotes, this is about their marketing. 2. They have other marketing channels than their website. 3. "Not in an LTE area", but I am in an LTE area, still the iPad can't use that, because of differing frequencies. So why market 4G and LTE in areas they know is neither a supported LTE area nor an area that defines HSPA+ as 4G?
I must've missed where this was advertised as LTE-compatible in Europe (which it obviously is not), vs. 4G-compatible (which it technically is).
