What’s with all the LTE News?! First it was TeliaSonera, and now it’s T-Mobile Austria who are getting on the LTE bandwagon…
TeleGeography is reporting that T-Mobile Austria has installed a test LTE network in its Vienna Renweg store. As with some other Operators, it’s Huawei that is on infrastructure duties.
They managed to get 130Mbps out of the cell, which was nice – but T-Mobile are now busy lobbying the government to consider giving out the 2.6GHz spectrum so that LTE can be launched on a commercial basis.
What I want to know is when we are getting LTE in the UK – despite some murmurs, the only broadband-related news I have heard is that the Government is planning to give people 2Mbps (on fixed-line) by 2012… sigh…

Ben Robinson
Ben is a 10+ year veteran of the Mobile industry – starting his career when SMS was a still a relatively new concept for most people (!), he has now consulted on everything from bleeding-edge Mobile content, to the next-gen accessories you might view it on. As a result he has a broad and deep knowledge in numerous areas of Mobile – from network operators to device vendors, to infrastructure and middleware vendors (not to mention content delivery) – and has worked for companies in all of these areas! He is based in the UK, a hotbed of activity for mobile, and recently became a father for the second time – as oppose to in his younger years when he was happy spend time tweaking all manner of mobile devices to 'nth' degree, he now looks for services and hardware that provide the most efficient, compact, and reliable improvements to his already manic life! It’s his opinion that Mobile solutions should be there to help to make your life better – if a particular solution (be it service or device) isn’t doing this, he believes you need to ask the very important question of why you continue to use it... His focus at IntoMobile is mainly on Mobile content, services, and infrastructure, particularly as regards the UK market – and with the occasional look at devices. Additionally, using his extensive experience in the industry, he will provide commentary on the industry at large, with regular (and hopefully thought-provoking) articles.
