Well at least Dish is doing a couple trials (they are doing one with sprint also).

The Sprint reference sounded like a bundle, not an LTE.

Guess that didn't go as well as planned, http://www.dslreports.com/shownews/...Customers-Tell-Us-ISP-Pulling-the-Plug-135245

Dish and nTelos are informing participants of a fixed LTE trial by the two companies that they'll be shuttering the effort as of December 1 -- at least in Virginia. Dish announced in May of 2013 that the company would be offering fixed LTE services in a new partnership with nTelos. At the time, the companies stated they'd be ultimately offering the service in Virginia, West Virginia, Maryland, North Carolina, Pennsylvania, Ohio and Kentucky.

Boy, Charlie just can't seem to use all that bandwith he has. Starting to look like he was a one trick (satellite)pony.

Any word on how reliable the service was in the test market?

Nobody wants to play in his sandbox

If anyone is mad about this, it's their own fault. Dish said right up front that it was subject to cancellation at any time, so there's no reason anyone with a brain should've subscribed to it in the first place!

I would cancel my dish subscription also when they shut down the wireless

Somehow when you say it, that's funny....

Oh, we all knew that a LOOOONNNNNGGGG time ago. As in we learned this last decade.
