Verizon LTE coming to 27 new markets this week Verizon Wireless has announced today that its 4G LTE network will be expanded to 27 new markets in time for the summer season.
Starting on May 17th, communities in "Sea Bright, Monmouth Beach, Belmar, Point Pleasant, Toms River, Atlantic City and into Cape May County will have access" to the 4G network.

Notes the carrier: "The size of our 4G LTE network gives us a significant competitive advantage over competitors as it enables more residents, small businesses and local government to take advantage of the speed and connectivity benefits offered by this advanced technology. We are committed to continuing the aggressive rollout of our 4G LTE network in 2012."

The carrier currently offers 22 LTE-capable devices, including smartphones, tablets, notebooks and hotspot modems.

Verizon's LTE was recently rated the fastest 4G in the nation, beating out AT&T handily and destroying Sprint. T-Mobile is set to launch their LTE network next year.
