Yet almost 40 years later I can’t get reliable service in NO. But don’t worry we’ll have 5G now.

Was that a Chrysler Lebarron?

That car was awesome.

I'm sure it's whatever company Verizon gobbled up

I would say not.

Wireless service has been available since the 1950s in some areas. Now the modern network of cellular service may date to the 1970s. By the way Chicago was first to get it as test.

I think 5G is going to be a huge letdown. A lot of hype but the cost to implement for the masses is going to too high.

Where do you have bad service in NOLA? I have Verizon and rarely have issues.

This is wrong. The equipment for carriers isn't even really notable to upgrade to it.

I recall someone here saying they were working on it for their company.
Maybe they can chime in on if it's a game changer.
