5g has potential, but it's not expected to replace 4G or fiber. It will be a complement. There will always be applications that are better suited for other technologies. The more interesting potential is for Verizon wireless to extend into the home. That's why there's a lot of interest in it.
I'm holding out for 7g...
Hey, 6G coming this summer.
Wall Street seems to be happy with the news.
To the troll that is claiming bye bye last mile employees. If 5g was the answer to all the companies troubles than why would they spend a billion dollars trying to break the union over the last strike. Makes one wonder how realistic and wonderful that 5g network really is. Oh and wait till the general public starts to get educated on the radiation that all those 5g micro cells on every other pole is emitting in their backyards. Get the punlicensed relations team ready to start spinning the truth.
yawn

Dear shareholders: Forget about our crappy 2016 performance and let me distract you with this 5g $hit. Okay? Buy more stock please.
I want to see Lowell ride around in his little 5G can some more. Yay! Look at me! This is a cool technology company!
When Is 5G Happening? The official 5G standard, known as 5G NR (new radio), probably won't come out until 2018, with full commercial rollouts in 2019 or 2020. But that's not stopping the wireless carriers like Verizon and AT&T from getting a jump on the technologies of course it woud be a good news article, but that will be the extend of it, no more
Verizon and AT&T both insist they'll have "5G" in 2017. This won't be 5G. It'll be non-standard, pre-5G. It could be used for backhaul, or home Internet, or for internally knitting together networks that customers then experience using 4G devices. T-Mobile, for its part, has pooh-poohed these pre-standard rollouts and said it'll be full in with 5G in 2020.
I callbullshit
Bye bye last mile infrastructure!
After the undeletable-super-cookie fiasco will people really trust or want Verizon to have additional info about for instance everywhere their car goes?
Lol, so you can reach your 5gb data cap in 2 minutes instead of a week.
Also, there is nothing verizon cannot f-- up. Put this on the list.
Are you listening Wall Street? It's coming.
PR, just like AT&T all BS
7 points for you, the best joke of the day
