Rogers to offer LTE services in Toronto
Canadian operator Rogers Communications is set to launch LTE network in Toronto beginning September 28, 2011. Rogers was the first carrier to introduce LTE to Canadians with its Ottawa launch on July 7, 2011. Rogers LTE will expand to Montreal and Vancouver this fall as well.
Rogers also announced plans to roll out new LTE product line this fall. It includes the Samsung Galaxy S II LTE Smartphone, the LTE Rocket™ mobile hotspot (Sierra Wireless AirCard® 754S), Rogers LTE RocketTM stick (now available in Ottawa), a LTE Tablet (manufacturer not disclosed), and the previously announced HTC Smartphone.
"Ottawa residents are already enjoying the benefits of Canada's fastest network technology - now Torontonians can begin the countdown to LTE and a whole new wireless experience," said John Boynton, Executive Vice President and Chief Marketing Officer.
