    I believe there was a conference today which some employees from both Orange & TMobile stores were invited too. Anyone care to tell what was revealed?

    Here's my guess

    EE4G Gold. Unlimited minutes, texts and data £48 per month

    EE4G Silver 2000 minutes, unlimited texts, 10 GB data
    £43 per month

    EE4G Bronze 2000 minutes, 2000 texts, 5 GB data £38 per month

    EE4G Starter 1000 minutes,2000 texts, 2GB data £33 per month

    All contracts 24 months. Existing orange and t mobile customers with at least 15 months in to a 24 month contract free upgrade 4G handset subject to migrating to same or higher price plan with new 24 month contract.

    ;)

    They are going to be the only MNO with LTE for at least 6 months (possibly Virgin as MVNO).

    They are going to milk it. Expect prices to not come down until the other MNOs start offering LTE too.

    At that point, O2 can compete with EE for who is most expensive. I would expect Three to continue to be cheapest.

    I imagine the plans will have pathetically low data limits and negate most of the benefits of having 4G in the first place. And the plans will be expensive too.

    I think the data allowances will be high and there will be unlimited plans too. What would be the point otherwise.

    exactly, what would be the point of this amazing new 4GEE when you use all your data in 1 day watching some live tv and video on you tube

    when you can do that today on 3G what makes you think allowances will be much bigger

    With 3g as it is at the moment I really dont see the point of getting 4g with the premium they are attaching to it.

    Im in the same mindset, 3G provides more than I need in terms of streaming and browsing on the move. Certainly won't be taking 4G at any premium over 3G.

    I dunno about you guys, but 3G on three, at least for me, has gotten better the past few months. I wasn't able to stream video so well, now I can stream higher bitrate video without constant buffering. Download speeds are still the same, but seems something somewhere is now better optimized with regards to the signal strength, pretty much buffer free play most of the time now.

    I'm still ok to go on with 3g for another year or so, see what late 2013 is saying and when the other networks get in on it.

    EE are positioning themselves as a premium brand, is no way they will do a one plan type deal at that value.

    I think there will be a £7 premium on the £41 full monty.

    I'd be surprised if they have produced the plans from anything other than the Orange plans as the base.

    It's not going to suddenly jump up, it's going to increase over time. In the US where they've had LTE for a while the packages are typically about 5GB on Verizon and AT&T for LTE.

    http://www.att.com/shop/wireless/plans/dataplans.html

    5GB is about £30 a month, of course that's US I'm not saying that's what it will cost here where market conditions are very different.

    T-mobile are matching AT&T thereabouts on that no long-term contract deal, about the same price only the 1st 5GB is 4G speeds, then you get 3G speeds for anything over that unlimited.

    There's cheaper deals too on contract:

    http://prepaid-phones.t-mobile.com/monthly-4g-plans

    "unlimited" but the catch is the first 5GB is at 4G speeds, then it drops down. £20 a month with 100 minutes and unlimited texts.

    This is the sort of thing we'll see once the UK market settles down a bit at all the operators are in the game, initially for the next year or so it will be more expensive.

    Don't expect to see unlimited or huge data plans, but do expect them to increase to around 5GB. Expect things like first 5GB at LTE speeds, then an unlimited 3G fallback, this is the sort of thing I imagine 3 doing with AYCE, 4G for the first x, then 3G speeds unlimited after that.
