As many of you UK based readers will know, is the first carrier and still the only one to offer publicly available 4G LTE coverage. After only a few months, the coverage rate has expanded at an incredible rate across most of Britain’s biggest cities. However, I happen to live in one of England’s smallest cities.

It’s hard to know where to start with this. Vodafone’s CEO said he’d gone in to an EE store to try out the 4G speeds was about and stated “all I saw technofreaks there”.

Since the iPhone launched in 2007, the only UK carrier to offer the Visual Voicemail service on the iPhone is O2. Essentially, that means that instead of connecting to an external voicemail inbox by calling, the messages show up in a list, showing contact details and play the message using your data connection. It’s great in that you can pause, play and…
EE, the UK’s newest network began rolling its 4G network in October this year, and has so far had mixed reviews. But, thanks to an aggressive marketing campaign featuring Kevin Bacon, it’s hard to ignore the fact that it’s here – no matter where you live. “4GEE” as the carrier likes to call it will be available in 17 new markets by March 2013.
