Since last year, several smartphone manufacturers have decided to adapt the 4G LTE technology for their devices' cellular wireless standards. So what's the deal with 4G? As you may have deduced from its name, 4G is much faster than 3G with the potential of being ten times faster. Although several smartphone manufacturers have boarded the 4G, one prominent company hasn't adapted the technology to its devices yet, and that is of course, Apple.

We have already shared number of rumors about iPhone 4G but this time these rumors are from reliable sources i-e Engadget and John Gruber.

As per a latest report of WSJ, Apple is expected to release two versions of iPhone, one for AT&T this summer and another CDMA version for Verizon by fall. Earlier, we shared that Apple is seeking cellular professionals with 4G technology expertise, which indicates that 4G powered iPhone is in the pipeline but there hasn't been any official statements from Apple yet about when and where they will release a 4G powered iPhone, but Apple...

Why Apple named iPhone 2G successor as iPhone 3G?, because it supports 3G technology. Would next generation iPhone or iPhone 4G (as the world has named it) really support 4G technologies like LTE? that is a big question mark. With LTE trials/deployments already in progress and AT&T's interest in LTE, it's pretty hard for Apple to not consider LTE as a realistic option on future iPhones, and our notion is quite right! Engadget has shared...

Ericsson and TeliaSonera have deployed world's first commercial Long- Term Evolution (LTE) site in Stockholm, Sweden - it's an important milestone for Ericsson. LTE will transform the mobile-broadband user experience, providing the ultra-high data speeds needed for services such as internet TV, mobile video blogging, on-line video games and the mobile office environment.

Most of us are already aware that Verison is amongst first few telecom companies in LTE trial race, along with aggressively working on development of LTE network, Version is also working on technical specifications of devices that will be running on its forthcoming network.

3GPP has finalized its work on the standardization of next-generation mobile broadband standard Long Term Evolution (LTE) last month. At the 3rd Generation Partnership Project (3GPP) meeting last month, the standards body approved the straggler specs that were delayed and given an extended deadline until March, which were mostly to do with the Systems Architecture Evolution (SAE) and Evolved Packet Core (EPC).
