    2013 and I expect that it too will/ may be big cities first or then again maybe not

    4G is up and running on EE (TMobile / Orange) EE "Extremely Exorbitant"? Expenditure Excessive?" got the Jump on all the other networks and 4G LTE is only available in the BIG CITIES

    Now there is a future problem looming which is this (remember this "I am just the messenger OK")

    ALL IP5 only ONLY have the 1800 Mhz frequency used BY EE

    Vodafone certainly and O2 (more than 75 %) will NOT be using the 1800 Mhz. So even if your phone is supplied by them, in 2013 when ALL networks go 4G LTE the IPhone5 will ONLY be 3G on Vodafone and O2

    Apple do NOT give away for free something that can be charged for later [never, ever ever ever].

    If you have want a 4G LTE phone on O2 or Vodafone it will almost certainly be the IP6 which will come months after 4G LTE arrive on the these networks

    If you want 4G LTE [or assumed it due to advertising!] and have an IP5 you will have to move to EE and unlock your IPhone5.*****

    ****Specification / Production for new phones is planned months in advance, and other phone makers knew of this and supplied the 4G LTE phone that had ALL the available UK frequencies...

    When the dust settles the IP5 will turn out to be a thinner, lighter, faster iPhone4S.

    There are ONLY 3 new features on the IP5 not on the IP4S [if you are an EE customer] and it is still Dual Core.

    There are ONLY 2 new features on the IP5 not on the IP4S [if you are an O2 or Vodafone customer] and it is still Dual Core.

    Sometime late next year, in the UK 4GEE bought the rights for the first use of 4G for around a year or so. Hence why its being so heavily advertised here at the moment.

    I also believe that 4GEE uses Orange and T-Mobile, so that means o2 wont be that far behind.
