- dmix 6y agoThat's basically the only problem. The marketing pushed it way too early, as they tend to do, but just way too cheery for what the reality is going to be. But otherwise it is a serious and legitimate leap forward. Of course it's nearly impossible to tell the sales people to keep the expectations in line with reality. Which I'm sure Verizon/ATT/etc all had engineers who knew the reality. It's just business from hyper competitive companies where most customers won't see much of anything for years. Customers will figure it out down the line, the companies are just kicking the can to try to exploit it for now before the other guy. It's cynical but predictable.
