Today Samsung with AT&T announced a handful of mid range devices, one of which is called the Galaxy Express. Now in no way is the express moniker a reference for the phone as a powerhouse handset, but its a clear indicator to the handset being LTE-enabled. Samsung Galaxy Express brings your standard specs including Android…
With the release of iOS 6, AT&T decided it would block FaceTime over cellular for customers who don’t subscribe to AT&T’s Mobile Share Plans. The decision was met with much criticism from groups who felt AT&T violated the FCC’s Open Internet Rules, though AT&T alleged its actions are in compliance with the FCC. Free Press,…
One of the major features of the iPhone 5 is its LTE connectivity, which brings the Apple smartphone on par with its Android counterparts. Carriers recognize the importance of LTE as a way to attract customers and are boosting their 4G network coverage before the iPhone 5 launch. Verizon will flip the switch on 19 new markets…
While AT&T customers are (not so) patiently waiting for the iPhone 5 to arrive on their doorsteps, AT&T itself is keeping busy flipping switches. AT&T’s LTE network has been turned on in a handful of locales over the past few days, with Seattle, Detroit, Portland, Honolulu, Pittsburgh, Sacramento, Birmingham, and Memphis all confirmed live by…

It looks like AT&T could launch the hot-new Nokia Lumia 920 as early as October 21st. The information comes from two different sources, BGR and WPcentral, both of which have been tipped by a different person. The problem, however, is that Nokia said its new Windows Phones will launch in early November so what gives?…
Much ado was made a few weeks back when AT&T announced that it had decided to block FaceTime over Cellular, a key feature built into iOS 6 and the iPhone 5, for customers not on the company’s Mobile Share plans. When the decision was made, AT&T took to its Public Policy Blog to defend the decision,…
The world collectively held its breath last week during Apple’s iPhone 5 announcement. As usual, once pre orders went live on Friday, people lost their minds trying to get in on being one of the first to get their hands on the latest and greatest from Apple.
