Thats interesting... Im going to bet though that it says that because they copied and pasted it from the same app on the Android marketplace where 4G is already on multiple phones... Just my 2 cents.

EDIT: Then again, The same thing happened with the app StreamToMe and iOS 4.3 about a month before it was released.

Looked for 'magicjack' app in Android Market. Not able to find it unless it has a different name..
 
I'm okay with the term 4G although iphone 5 is just having a DL speed of 21 mbps, less than 100mbps. After all, it is still 3 times faster than iPhone 4, and ITU has already changed its definition to include HSPA+ as 4G.

A big question is how Verizon will handle the AT&T version of the iphone 5 with HSPA+ vs their version of an iphone 5 on their slow 3G network? If there is no LTE version, AT&T is going to hammer Verizon in their ads by stating that their version of the iPhone 5 will be 10 to 20 times faster than the Verizon iPhone 5.

why do you think verizon pushed LTE out so quick? They needed to compete with HSPA+

But there is no proof that the Verizon iPhone 5 will be LTE. If not, AT&T will hammer them on that. This will be a big win for AT&T.

I wasn't talking about the iPhone 5 being LTE compatible. I was talking in general why verizon pushed LTE out so quick
