“I’d say all the major manufacturers we’re talking to today are making the transition to LTE,” said Lowell McAdam, Verizon’s CEO.

He also added a word about the manufacturers of the tablet devices. It is well known news that Verizon is getting ready for an Android based tablet but the manufacturers were not revealed. McAdam did that in the press meet. These high speed devices will be manufactured by Motorola, Samsung and LG.

“There’s no reason we couldn’t have an iPad,” McAdam said.
