"Normal download speeds are expected be between 20 Mbps (bits per second) and 80 Mbps, according to Johan Wibergh , senior vice president and head of Ericsson's business unit for networks. The speeds will, for example, be able to support HDTV on a big screen, he said."
"Even on the low end of the TeliaSonera 4G service offerings, the advertised speed is nearly seven times faster than AT&T's 3G network, which has been determined to be the fastest 3G available in the United States. The 80Mbps service is a blazing 22 times faster than the AT&T 3G speeds."

"Today, commercially launched LTE networks now cover fewer than half a million people."
