According to a new press statement from Verizon, the carrier is seeing peak download speeds of 40 to 50 megabits per second and peak upload speeds of 20 to 25 Mbps in the LTE (Long Term Evolution) wireless broadband tests they’re conducting in Seattle and Boston.

Sprint alerted Forbes that the carrier’s first Mobile WiMax handset will launch in the first half of this year. Given the fact that the Sprint/Clearwire Mobile WiMax network has a limited reach of 27 U.S. markets, most of them little, the device will of course be dual mode – switching to Sprint’s EVDO network when Mobile WiMax isn’t available.

Verizon CTO Dick Lynch says that Verizon’s LTE plans are on track and that the company should launch the faster service in between 25 and 30 markets later this year.

iPhone users need to be educated exactly what a megabyte is, apparently. And the argument that an already hugely profitable company wants to charge even more money for bandwidth isn’t one that sits well with consumers.

Last week AT&T tried their best to get Verizon’s new series of ads shuttered that poked fun at AT&T’s lackluster 3G coverage. Verizon shot back to AT&T’s complaint as a “perfectly fair form of advertising”.

AT&T is of course starting to deploy faster HSPA 7.2 upgrades, which nudge AT&T’s downstream 3G network speed closer to 7.2 Mbps . Not that you’ll actually see those kinds of speeds in the real world, but it’s a decent improvement.

The IOT in Europe will be performed on Huawei’s LTE network and LTE modems manufactured by Samsung. The testing represents a big step forward for the commercialization of LTE and bringing mobile broadband services to end-users.

Clearwire, the WiMAX network that Sprint invested in will be going live in Philadelphia and Chicago.
