Tonight show is complete but a small confession the first 12 minutes where recorded twice, first time I have done that in years. As soon as I started the show firefox crashed, the tricaster ran out of hd space, and a host of other things made it a complete circus. Don’t worry I save both the audio and video for a best of clips. Your host is 95% healthy again and I am announce a pretty cool new contest where you can win a Zune HD you will have to be creative to win though and will have to get on this pretty quick more in the show.

Verizon working on 4G sooner than later?

Posted by Nolan at 6:03 AM on July 25, 2009

Verizon and AT&T are going to transfer their systems over to the 4G LTE systems throughout 2010 according to past releases. It appears that Verizon could be accelerating that time schedule according to a report on Appleinsider. Could it be to accomodate a new 4G equipped Apple product? Who knows. Anyway I digress.

So I was in my local Verizon store switching up some details of our family plan (one family member now moving on to their own plan. Yeah!) And naturally, being an Apple fan, I slipped in a bit about the iPhone. The salesmen said, “Well you know it won’t be with only AT&T forever. It could be here some day.” I added that it certainly would as Apple is greedy and wants to sell more phones, but that it wouldn’t happen until the change to 4G later in 2010 and early 2011. He suddenly became coy with a slight smile. Hmm. Could it be word is sifting down that the change over is accelerating?

Verizon fans are salivating. You know it.
