HTC Holiday and Lead to be the first LTE AT&T phones?
AT&T is going LTE soon, everybody knows it. There are still no AT&T LTE-capable announced devices, but thanks to a few leaked ROMs we already know two - the HTC Holiday and the HTC Lead.
Both smartphones are high-end droids based on the Snapdragon MSM8660 chipset - a 1.2GHz dual-core processor, Adreno 220 graphics, LTE and HSPA+ support (21Mbps HSDPA and 5.76Mbps HSUPA).
The HTC Holiday should pack a 4.5-inch qHD display, 1GB RAM, 8 megapixel camera with 1080p camcorder, 1.3 megapixel video-call camera, and Bluetooth 4.0 shining among the usual connectivity goodies.
HTC Holiday • HTC Lead
The HTC Lead features a little smaller, 4.3-inch WVGA screen, 768MB RAM, 5 megapixel snapper (unclear video-recording), and Bluetooth 3.0 in addition to all the typical connectivity options.
We guess the official announcement should happen soon. In case you've been thinking of switching to another LTE carrier (Verizon), perhaps this AT&T news will get you excited. In the meantime, all we can do on this side of the Atlantic is sit and watch the LTE game Stateside.

not true, On December 6, 2010, ITU announced that current versions of LTE, WiMax and other evolved 3G technologies that do not fulfill "IMT-Advanced" requirements could be considered "4G"
