I expected at least SOME meaningful LTE coverage to be available as of July 15th. That was a clear promise not kept. From the testing done so far and reported all over the internet, and as experienced by ME, there is FAR less than 40% coverage of the Houston market. Less than 10% is more like it. I am less than 1/4 mile from one of the towers you show as being live. No LTE.I will be traveling the city all over the west side today, really hope to see better news.Yes, I did expect the new service to at least work on launch day in most areas. Very few folks have reported ANY connections that actually work and stay connected.Over promised and under delivered. Just look at the coverage map presented TODAY on the Sprint website. That is a clear indication of promise made and is nowhere near real. Quit making excuses for them. Its plain and simple that they missed the promised launch.

I agree. The ACTUAL coverage at launch day is no where near (at least in Houston) what the Sprint's message, the maps, or the tower positon graphics would have you believe. No doubt that Sprint will get there...and we are all very excited about the longer term possibility and yes, LTE connect "sightings" are increasing - but they simply shouldn't over-sell their launch and set false expectations as they did for July 15th/16th, not just in my market but in others as well.

I'm in Houston w/ HTC EVO LTE....drove almost entire 610 loop today as well as 59 from 610 to Downtown....no 4G signal anywhere....only brief (~1 sec) notice of 4G icon upon a reboot but immediately back to 3G - from which the speeds are horrible. Hoping for some solid 4G coverage this week.

Missing at least WIMAX 4G from the original EVO.....
