    The one east of Lakewood Ranch is probably the one I'll be on at home. You mean that one will NEVER receive LTE? That likely means I'll never see LTE at my house. Mike

    BTW, I should mention, I've gotten the same "they're just waiting to turn it on" story too! I use the store on Fruitville and Honore and also the one you were talking about: the one next door to Buffalo Wild Wings. The former is the one that told me last August that 4G would be on by December and I believe it's the same one as you (the one near Jason's Deli and Buffalo Wild Wings) that claimed everything had already been upgraded and was ready to be turned on. They told me that when I went in to cancel my contract to go with another carrier: stupid me I believed them and renewed for another 2 years. When questioned about the horrible Sprint cell signal in this area, both of those stores will tell you "your signal will be bad for another month or so: they are upgrading the towers". As far as I can tell by the info on this site, they haven't touched a single tower in this area... at least as far as 4G is concerned. Mike

    Thanks. This does give me some glimmer of hope. When I said nothing was in progress, I was referring to the maps here on this site. There is a massive gap of no activity whatsoever between Tampa (or at least St. Pete) and Fort Myers. The Sensorly maps back this up. I do see one site that says in progress north of Bradenton but I'm actually closer to Sarasota... where the map is just blank. Mike

    I was wondering about this. Sprint stores have been selling phones here, telling people LTE would be in Sarasota/Bradenton by last December. Then around November, the words "Sarasota/Bradenton" were removed from all listings of markets getting LTE. If you look at the markets in SW Florida now, "Sarasota/Bradenton" is suspiciously missing. Worse, they started some work here on Sprint towers about last August... made Sprint service in this area nearly unusable (and that's how it remains now 6-7 months later). Not a word since. No updates. And not a tower in this area even "in progress". Makes me wonder still. Mike
