Just when you thought you knew all you needed to know about cell phone and smart phone networks. Just when you believed you knew where all the dead-zones where in your area or on the route to your most common destination, it appears there is a Game Changer afoot; the 4G wireless network. And when it comes to 4G wireless technologies, there are a number of companies leading the field.

These companies are Sprint, which is Sprinting ahead as we speak opening up San Francisco to 4G capabilities right now. And there is AT&T which dominates markets in many states, and there is Verizon with a larger footprint of subscribers and a significant market share advantage. However, 4G cellular wireless is quickly making all that 3G wireless technology completely obsolete and the new race is on. And these companies want you into a full-featured Smart Phone like yesterday, one with GPS, video talk, news feeds, mobile TV, and unheard of surfing speeds online.

If you think your 3G wireless cell phone running on the AT&T, Sprint, or Verizon Network is good now, ha, you haven’t seen anything yet. Each of these companies is set to spend billions more upgrading their networks. And, Apple’s iPhone and Google’s Nexus One stand to gain even more market share. There is rumor that soon you’ll be able to buy a Google Nexus One and it will be able to run on the Verizon network, whereas, before you were limited to the AT&T Network with that model.

So, who is sprinting the fastest when it comes to 4G wireless roll-out? Well the king of opening up new markets with their blitz marketing type teams has got to be Sprint, they are so aggressive on the ground floor, and with all their indirect dealers, that you can bet they are really giving the big boys a run for their money these days.

Of course, Sprint is huge and it is no Spring Chicken either really. In fact, you can get a full listing of all the 4G cities by going to Sprint dot com – forward slash 4G. The company has already announced that it offers 4G smart phone data and cell phone combination services 3g and 4G in:

• Raleigh North Carolina
• Greensboro North Carolina
• San Antonio Texas
• Seattle and Tacoma Washington
• Bellingham Washington
• Portland Oregon
• Philadelphia Pennsylvania

• Waco — Killen — Temple Texas

• Honolulu and Maui Hawaii

Brands for GE data wireless services are only $59.99 per month when you sign up for 24 months and you get 5 GB per month on your data allowance which is quite a significant amount of information flow. If you have a 4G wireless cell phone or smartphone you can still use the Sprint mobile broadband network with all their 3G wireless sites when you’re not in a 4G area. And if you are going to a 4G area you can pay $9.99 for 24 hours of use and tack it onto your 3G service plan it’s almost as if Sprint thought of everything.

And you can bet all the other wireless networks are going to follow. Needless to say, things are about to get very interesting in the smart cellphones space and industry sector, especially here in the good old USA. I hope you will please consider this.
