I haven't really had a problem with it, it's just not as fast as people made 4G out to be but that may be a Cspire issue. A friend of mine is having trouble with it, it won't load pictures in his twitter app, won't load GIF's and he can't open the app store at all.

I've been fairly pleased with the speeds.

I have been averaging around 15mbps on my Iphone 5. The only issue is I will be in a heavy LTE area (as far as coverage) and it will toggle in and out of LTE. That causes a drain on the battery. Verizon LTE has been getting speeds around 25-30mbps in large cities. That's crazy, but there really isn't a need for speeds that fast on a phone unless you are tethering it to move satellites in orbit.

My phone now has download speeds faster than my home DSL. My home DSL is the fastest AT&T offers, which is 6 mbps.

I haven't had it for long, so I haven't really left the Jackson area, but it works good here in my opinion.

The IT nazis at work have gone too far in limiting the guest not-on-the-corporate-network wi-fi. I'd like to at least be able to stream 320kbps music (Mog) without much challenge. A solid 1Mbps would be plenty for my needs.

1Mbps is almost tops for 3G in good conditions without traffic congestion. 4G ought to be able to handle that no sweat if their coverage is decent.
