TBH there is some truth in what he is saying and some BS. While Verizon wireless with LTE in some markets and Sprint Wimax in some markets is indeed a 4th generation tech, there is none that are currently meeting the exisisting 4g specs, T-mobilesand ATTs HSPA + consistantly out paces sprints wimax in just about every area the 2 have been tested on. Check some wireless sites for benchmarks. Verizon Wireless has been tested in real world as the fastest out now only on the LTE network. ATT and tmobile will soon be the same company and start deploying LTE in some markets, They have the same completion time as Verizon. The odd ball out is really sprint, its Wimax has proved to be slower then even HSPA +, everyone else in the industry including long time cdma verizon is switching to GSM base LTE. In reallity its arguable that ATT is indeed in the best position, with slight upgrade on existing 3g its offering LIKE 4g speeds on its entire 3g network aswell as building out LTE.
