You actually don't have to live in _that_ large of a city. The Raleigh/Durham MSAs combine for about 1.6M in total population spread over a pretty sprawling area and we have had LTE service for a few months.
I frankly don't get the complaints or the folks who are going to downgrade to 3G. If you don't have LTE available, the device will fall back to 3G. When you do have LTE available, however, the performance can be unbelievable. I was co-working with a colleague and we were getting 20Mbps down and 10Mbps up over a little MiFi.
I'll hang onto my LTE MiFi, thankyouverymuch. :)
