Verizon 4G To Go Live Thursday In Sioux Falls?

Could Thunderbolt owners in Sioux Falls be seeing the 4G switch turned on this Thursday? Nothing official but a tweet this morning from Verizon Wireless could mean that us lucky few could see our 4G icon showing up before the end of the week. This would be in line with those locally who have seen the mythical 4G icon intermittently for a few weeks now.

Earlier we got the word that Sioux Falls was one of 100 or so cities targeted for the new LTE service this year and from what I was told when I picked up my Thunderbolt a few weeks ago, we were on track for this spring/summer. So if you are one of the few with a TBolt or 4G aircard in the Sioux Falls area feel free to cross your fingers and toes and we will see for sure on Thursday.

Either way some folks are going to have a good day.

UPDATE 4/19 - Verizon has announced the cities getting 4G this week and Sioux Falls isn't on the list. According to various press releases Columbia and Hilton Head, South Carolina; Wilmington, North Carolina; Allentown, Bethlehem, Easton and Lehigh Valley Airport in Pennsylvania; along with Cleveland and Clarksville, Tennessee go live on the 21st. Oh well...
