"Apple's new iPhone 5 features support for LTE networks across the world, but it won't be able to offer simultaneous voice and data on all of them. The Verge has confirmed with Verizon Wireless that the iPhone 5 won't support the feature when it's on the carrier's cellular network, even if it is connected to LTE. This is in contrast to the rest of the LTE phones in Verizon's lineup, all of which support simultaneous voice and data when connected to LTE."

Are you kidding me? As an AT&T customer, I honestly feel bad for you guys. You mean you can't use data while on the phone with someone even on LTE? Major bummer, you'd think they would've addressed this with the iPhone 5. Maybe this will make a carrier decisions easier for some of you. I know it makes my decision easier. I use that functionality ALL the time on AT&T.

Looks like they're genuinely trying to make people switch carriers...

That's because they suck..... but they do offer great prices on their plans unlike AT&T...who are greedy. It's honestly a lose-lose situation when choosing a carrier. Just like who to pick in the Presidential race... Are we really winning at all? No, the system screws us over every time.
