Dec 2 2010, 1:39am CST | by Luigi Lugmayr

Verizon announced to "switch on" their LTE network on December 5th. There will be no LTE phones for a while, but USB modems. The LG VL600 LTE USB modem for Verizon Wireless just got unveiled today by LG.

The LG VL600 features high-speed 4G internet connectivity in a lightweight design with a flip USB cover. By just connecting with the LG VL600, customers in the 4G LTE service area can expect high speeds of 5 to 12 Mbps (megabits per second) on download and 2 to 5 Mbps on upload for high quality multimedia content, more than 10 times faster than 3G.

Features of the LG VL600 include a 4-color LED Service Status Indicator, built-in antenna, low 50g weight and support for Windows XP, Vista and Windows 7. Apparently the LG VL600 LTE modem does not support Apple computers yet.

Verizon Wireless set to launch 4G LTE service in 38 major U.S. metropolitan areas on Sunday (Dec. 5). The service will cover 60 commercial airports and 110 million people – more than one third of the United States population.
