That sounds positive, 4G comes to my home city of Newcastle upon Tyne just before Christmas.
I've just got a new iPhone 5 which is 4G ready, so hopefully that will work here at Christmas,
However on the iPhone 5 it does state the date 4G LTE, where on my Ipad 3 it states only 3G with no mention of LTE anywhere.
I've spoken to my operator Orange who say one moment yes it will work with the new 4g, and then told by another assistant at orange it won't work as it has different frequencies. My local apple store says no, and the apple helpline assistant reassures me it will work over 4G ?
Wouldn't you think someone would know for sure )
