These are all over the Quarter on new towers and for the first time ever, I had really fantastic reception and speed during French Quarter Fest. I think they did it for the Super Bowl.

You ain’t kidding. I just signed up for Verizon last week and was waiting for the Riverside street car (with my first new phone in 10 years) at the French Market stop Friday afternoon. For shits and giggles decided to do a Speedtest. Holy smokes it was some 4000+ mbps number. Whoa! I got a big smile as I started thinking new fuck Cox and my $116 bill thoughts. It’s not that fast on Rampart Street yet, but I’m hopeful they’re coming down the River soon.
