Comments on: Verizon CEO: Apple LTE Products Coming http://www.slashgear.com/verizon-ceo-apple-lte-products-coming-25136282/ Feeding Your Gadget and Tech Obsessions Thu, 17 May 2012 17:46:00 +0000 hourly 1 http://wordpress.org/?v=3.5.1 By: UnderDoc http://www.slashgear.com/verizon-ceo-apple-lte-products-coming-25136282/#comment-96799 UnderDoc Fri, 25 Feb 2011 23:45:00 +0000 http://www.slashgear.com/?p=136282#comment-96799 The competition in sales is not in the 3G or 4G models, but in the WiFi ones — that’s why the iPad has been wiping the floor with Samsung’s Tab. Xoom will only lose sales if Motorola doesn’t deliver the promised WiFi-only model.

LTE will become an advantage when the premium price for it becomes negligible. So far, it’ll only be a deterrent. Now, if Apple can offer iPad 2 with LTE for less than $700 without binding contracts, Xoom may be doomed.
