Will they adopt a "if it ain't broke, don't fix it" attitude? Or will 4G LTE and new features push them to use their upgrade? Most people have little understanding of what LTE is and how it is different than Wimax. There are also those who regret their upgrade and will downgrade to a dumbphone and cheaper monthly bill when they are once again eligible for carrier subsidies on a new phone. A lot of people are not going to want to pay $200-300 to upgrade when they already have an EVO or Epic, and especially if they currently have a EVO 3D, Photon or Epic Touch.
