exactly
it's the same reason I criticized apple's non-HD display
it's all about industry standards....which flagship phone released in the last little while wasn't LTE capable? This phone is marketed for mostly 2013 so that's a bummer. Saying they want this to be compatible in all markets sounds like an excuse. That said, it's still one hell of a deal starting @ $199 Quote:

Only $309 for the phone! https://play.google.com/store/device...id=nexus_4_8gb
Isn't that even cheaper than the Nexus 3?

Lets be honest here, if it had LTE, it wouldn't be $299/$349.
Secondly, it sounds like they wanted to break free from Carriers, which means they can't license LTE. I don't blame them for this, because Verizon and Sprint did a damn good job tarnishing the Nexus name with the Galaxy Nexus.
There's no denying LTE is the future, but I can see why they did it

A hands on video of the Nexus 4. I'm liking the look of this.
Don't know if i would give up the S3 for this though.

I just don't get why they aren't putting in LTE if they are pushing for cloud storage.

^Yes, when Google Music/Google Drive/Play Store for movies didn't exist.
I didn't realize that so many people were not getting LTE. My Note/S3 was on LTE mostly everywhere I went. Or maybe I was just always on major transit routes so I was lucky enough to always have LTE when I needed it.

I have LTE 90% of the places I go in Vancouver... and I do so much streaming nowadays it would kind of suck not to have it so I can stream music and browse and upload to Dropbox at the same time.

Burnaby, Richmond and Vancouver. Having to revert back to H+ kinda sucks after you've been spoiled by LTE.
Also, I realize that Google phones does not come with a Task manager like Sammy phones. How do I kill a task from running in the background when I get the Nexus 4?

However, if you're set on doing it, you press the "multi-task button" (the button to the right of the home button) and swipe the apps away to either the left or the right. Or just download a task manager.
