I'm getting 22-25 in the 4 corners area about 15 minutes past Disney World. Pretty amazing to me since its mostly orange groves here.
I have the luxury of having both att and Verizon LTE service in orlando. Rock solid LTE speeds with both carriers.
Verizon has had it since Jan 2011 in Orlando. And att has had LTE since Sept/October 2011.
Verizon goes all over the place these days as more people are on LTE. First I would consistently hit 20-50mpbs on my lte galaxy nexus last year. Now on my Verizon iPad I hit 10-20mpbs. Once in a while I may hit 45mpbs but its not consistent any more.
Att. Also same issue. As early adopter last year I would get 30-45mbps on the S2 skyrocket.
Notice speeds not consistent anymore. Now range from 15-30mbps. Still super fast.
Yes. Shouldn't be complaining in Orlando about LTE service since we were one of the first cities to get it with both carriers

AT&T HSPA rocks down there, to me you don't need LTE. We go to Spring Training every year, before we had LTE in Philly I was always impressed how AT&T network was in Tampa/Clearwater/Orlando.
To OP: Yep, it's true.

AT&T users seem to be faring a lot better. Verizon's LTE results aren't shabby either. My speed tests seem to be lowest, and even those are quite comparable to WiFi and much better than my experience with Sprint 4G WiMax.

If that is not bad enough, I'm about 20 miles west of Tampa (Dunedin) and I don't get it either
3G is still fare for my needs however.We have more tourists?!?
I'm 50 miles NW, supposedly we have it up here - but I don't have an iP5 yet to know how it is!
Tampa has had LTE through AT&T for at least a year. I don't even use LTE because AT&T's HSPA is almost as fast and doesn't use near the battery power LTE uses...
Wow 50+ O.O nice! Highest I've gotten is 16-20mbps in Los Angeles, full bars with At&t...
