Gruber on the iPhone 4G Thing

John Gruber:

[W]hen a new iPad is connected via LTE, it says “LTE” up in the status bar, not “4G”, so it’s not like Apple is pretending “4G” and “LTE” are the same thing.

Good point. I suppose Apple could be allowing marketing consistency between what carriers say and what their phones say. I still think it comes across as dishonest and/or misleading.
