ALTRON: LTE announcement please :)

Why? so you can download your websites .5 of a sec faster and use the your cap 10x faster?


If you are downloading websites 0.5s faster you won't be using your data 10 x faster.  (unless it previously took 0.5555555(etc) seconds to download each webpage and you are constantly clicking through webpages as soon as one loads one after the other without reading any of the contant.. ......which isn't very likely)


Just because the DL speed improves it doesn't mean the ping will improve just as much.

latency difference between 3G and 4G is worlds apart and it really does make browsing the web better
