TELUS keeps expanding the coverage area of its LTE network in order to hit the goal of reaching 25 million Canadians by the end of 2012. The latest markets to get the 4G speeds include Barrie, Bolton, Orangeville, St. Thomas, Kingston and Muskoka, while Montreal and Calgary got some improvements, as well. The new markets join the existing site network that includes the following cities: Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton, Kitchener, Waterloo, Hamilton, Ottawa, Québec City, Halifax and Yellowknife.
TELUS’ LTE network, in case you wonder, reaches average speeds of 12-25 Mbps with higher speeds (obviously) achieved by those located in the vicinity of a cell tower (though some other factors like network congestion also count). And uou can see the Telus’ coverage map from here.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
