The LTE iPhone 5 speculators have just received a fresh shot of life thanks to a newly leaked image showing an alleged AT&T LTE station installed in a “major” Apple Store. Even more intriguing is the fact that one of the pieces of LTE equipment above supports the 700 MHz and AWS bands — bands which AT&T will only be able to fully use for LTE after the T-Mobile merger goes through. It seems rather brash for AT&T to be throwing this much...
AT&T’s upcoming USBConnect Momentum 4G ($49.99) and Mobile Hotspot Elevate 4G ($69.99) LTE modems have been given the hands-on treatment by This Is My Next.

The truth: they don’t… In the leaked FCC...
Previous reports that AT&T may launch LTE phones to coincide with this summer’s/early fall’s LTE network launch in a handful of major cities around the country — Atlanta, Chicago, Dallas, Houston and San Antonio — sparked quite a bit of discussion in the tech world.
