Several people today have data plans with their cell phones, which gives them access to the Internet 24/7. Most phones run on the 3G network, which is fast, but not the fastest out there, as there is now a fourth-generation wireless service. Verizon Wireless has advanced into this new wireless network. Verizon has recently announced that on Thursday it will begin selling the "HTC Corp. ThunderBolt", their first 4G phone. While Verizon has had the 4G network before, it was only available for laptop air cards. This is the first time that Verizon will be selling an actual 4G phone. The Thunderbolt allows Verizon to compete with Sprint in "the 4G game". While Verizon's Thunderbolt seems very similar to Sprint's 4G smartphone, the Thunderbolt has a larger screen and a larger battery, that will work better with the 4G connection. It has been reported that Verizon's connection speed is significantly faster than its competitors.
I believe that Verizon's new phone will be revolutionary because the faster net work makes it a more advanced phone. This phone has a huge appeal because several people want a faster network on their phones. I find it extremely frustrating when a page won't load on my cell phone. With today's fast-paced world, it is important that our technology stays up to speed with us. I believe that the Thunderbolt will be revolutionary in the cell phone world. In addition, I see there being many more 4G phones available in the near future.
