AT&T SVP: LTE ‘coming soon’ to NYC

How do you adore them acronyms? In the event you had any doubt that AT&T would bring LTE to NYC within the near future, it is time to put that doubt aside — variety of. Speaking on the Mashable Media Summit Friday, Senior VP of corporate communications Larry Solomon said that Ny city will be sheathed in Ma Bell-branded high speed “soon.” Sure it’s vague, but it’s something. Here is what he needed to say:

We’re investing about $20 billion this year in our network, adding cell sites in Ny city alone, rolling out 4G LTE. We’ll have about 70 million consumers covered around the US by the top of this year, and it’ll be coming to Ny city soon.

There is no telling when the massive city gets it’s taste of the AT&T LTE pie, but it surely can be in good company when it does. The carrier announced just this week that it might add Boston, Washington DC, Baltimore and Athens, GA to its 4G lineup . Video of Mr. Solomon’s speech awaits you after the break.
