More Mobile Internet comments:   This is yet another large city that now has 4G.  Remember, it's still smart to purchase a Sprint Device has 4G capabilities even if 4G is not in your area yet.  If you settle for a 3G device, you will have to purchase  brand new equipment to get 4G.  Don't make that mistake especially since we have several 4G devices for free at More Mobile Internet
