Nokia’s first LTE modem now available; lifespan projected to be slightly longer than N810 WiMAX Edition
Having theoretically learned something from the N810 WiMAX Edition debacle, Nokia now seems to be letting the market dictate where wireless technology is headed as opposed to trying to cut competition off at the pass. The result: a focus on future-ready products as opposed to tablets no one wants with a broadband connectivity option no one has. This morning Nokia announced the successful trials and partner availability of its RD-3 internet modem. The RD-3 is a modem component that supports an array of GSM/EDGE, WCDMA/HSPA and of course LTE bands, making it an ideal development tool for network vendors, OEMs and operators. Nokia, paving the way for LTE development and adoption… We like it.
how about an lte n900 type device for verizon.
by the time we see a commercially available LTE offering, the N900 will have been replaced by the next wave of Maemo 6 devices coming next year.
Here in US most of people don’t even have HSPA networks. That roadmap is probably for Europe, add 5 years and you get USA roadmap.
That was one of the most biased assessments of 4G and any partners ever made
You need to check out Verizon’s plans. For once US may be first..
