That there is still not an LTE modem indicates some kind of market failure. Is this because of the Qualcomm patents?

- the_lucifer 6y agoQualcomm's payments IIRC are also dependent on the final device cost so I'd think that the payments can get absurdly expensive. I'm hoping that cellular modems might come to the Mac when Apple gets their in-house modems ready
- mcculley 6y agoThat is my guess as well, but I haven't found any official word on this. It is ridiculous that I can buy a Dell with an LTE modem and not a MacBook Pro.
- justincormack 6y agoIf Apple were to ship one it would be in a later release. Eg the iPad didn’t have one as Apple don’t like to reveal info about models which you have to do for FCC approval.
