Can anyone explain how 3G LTE works?

Questionmark
I’ve read about GSM, WCDMA, EVDO, HSDPA, HSUPA, WiMAX, but this new phrase "LTE" which stands for "Long Term Evolution" is still very foreign to me.

I’m trying to find more information about it, but I’m failing.

There are people out there a lot smarter than me, can you please break it down for me?

The only fact I could dig up was this:

"To obtain the all-important performance advantage for higher data rate mobile applications, the 3G LTE specifications will be based on a switch from W-CDMA to OFDM (Orthogonal Frequency Division Multiplexing) modulation technology. This represents a significant change at the lowest level of the radio communications, and achieving synchronization will be a major challenge." – RF Design

Is Nokia working on LTE? Will it be expensive to deploy? Time frames?
