AT&T and Verizon may be bickering back and forth over Big Red’s proposed 4G rollout slated for this year, but one carrier in particular would like to remind you that they already have 4G up in play now — Sprint. Perhaps you don’t want to browser the mobile web on a tiny 4″ screen though. That’s certainly understandable. For that, wireless cards for laptops save the day. There are various makes and models that even come with 3G built in so you don’t have to deal with buying separate cards. Taking it one step further, Sprint and Lenovo have some pretty sweet news: From here on out, all Lenovo laptops will have Sprint 3G/4G technology built in.
Lenovo fell of my radar long ago as they turned into a corporate workhorse almost built into obscurity. But times are a changin’ and the latest Lenovo machines aren’t actually all that bad consumer-wise. When my laptop is up for a refresh (or I simply get a second) Lenovo may just get a nod as built in 4G would be awesome.
Of course, in 6-12 months more manufacturers will probably offer the same 4G options as well (albeit for an added price), so the playing field will be a bit more level.
Is built in Sprint 3G/4G enough to sway you towards Lenovo now? Their newew laptops actually look pretty sweet and the spec’s aren’t too lacking either…
