SoCal gets improved Verizon Wireless capacity

IRVINE, Calif. – More Los Angeles County residents, businesses and visitors are enjoying high-speed wireless data and voice connections in the Palmdale area, as Verizon Wireless network has completed hundreds of upgrades.

The improvements have resulted in increasing the company's 3G data and voice capacity by nearly 25 percent in Southern California.

"People expect their cell phones and wireless devices to work whenever and wherever they need them," said Bill D'Agostino, executive director of network for Verizon Wireless in Southern California. "That's why we continue to invest in our network. By meeting the growing demand for data services on our network, we empower each of our customers to Rule the Air in their own unique, individual way."

Mobile broadband allows users to connect to the Internet wirelessly to download applications, business documents and music, as well as accessing e-mail and corporate data while on the go.

Verizon Wireless will launch its 4G Long Term Evolution wireless network in the fourth quarter of 2010. The company's network build includes plans to launch in 25 to 30 markets, covering approximately 100 million people. The company will cover virtually all its current nationwide 3G footprint with the 4G network by the end of 2013.
