AT&T customers have access to the nation’s largest 4G network, covering 285 million people. AT&T has two 4G networks that work together for customers, LTE and HSPA+ with enhanced backhaul. That means AT&T customers are able to enjoy a widespread, ultra-fast and consistent 4G experience on their compatible device as they move in and out of LTE areas.2 With other carriers, when you travel outside of their LTE coverage area, you may be on a much slower 3G network. Customers purchasing Windows 8 tablets from AT&T have more options in choosing the plan that’s right for them and their mobile devices. With new AT&T Mobile Share plans, new and existing customers can share a single bucket of data across smartphones, tablets, and other compatible devices. AT&T Mobile Share allows customers to build a plan to fit their devices and usage. For as low as $10 per month, customers can connect the ASUS VivoTab RT 4G LTE tablet with AT&T's new Mobile Share plans. Customers can select one of the new shared data plans or choose one of AT&T’s existing individual or family plans.3 The ASUS VivoTab RT will be available in AT&T company-owned retail stores nationwide and online at www.wireless.att.com. |
