"after launching in March selling 130k LTE phones a week (1 phone), they are limping along 60 months later selling 54K LTE phones a week (60% decline despite 500% more phone models). " Oops, typo, I meant "6 months later," not 60.

U R WRONG: "During the third quarter, we added over 1.3 million total connections: 882,000 were retail postpaid net adds, 86,000 were retail prepaid and roughly 367,000 were wholesale and other connections. Importantly, 52% of the retail postpaid net adds in the quarter were 4G LTE smartphones and Internet devices, up from 30% in the second quarter. " seekingalpha.com 4G LTE is on fire and growing by leaps and bounds.... and when it comes to Verizon retail new subscribers, more than 52% (52%!!!) are choosing 4G LTE (up from 30% last quarter and shows the massive growth of 4G LTE. In fact new subscribers in their majority are choosing 4G LTE over pathetically slow dial up 3G. WOW!!!! Apple is freaking screwed.... Think about... more new retail Verizon subscribers are choosing fiber speed 4G LTE than slow dial up 3G.... goes to show you that only idiots will go with a slow poke dial up 3G when they can get fiber speeds with 4G LTE....
