Usually, when an ISP posts service downlink and uplink speeds, you have to take them with a grain of salt. Like a 20 MPG rating on a Hummer H2, your real world results “may vary.” It is, however, a great sign when an ISP says their network tests were, “faster than we’ve ever suggested” and that their, “network team is shocked.” Those were the words Verizon spokesman Jeffrey Nelson had to say about Big Red’s latest LTE network tests. Verizon’s Boston and Seattle LTE test networks are reporting speeds that range from 5-12 Mb/second on the download and 2-5 Mb/second on the upload. Verizon had initially quoted downlink speeds of 6 Mb/sec on its LTE network. Big Red says it is on track to light up its 4G network in 25-30 markets by the end of 2010.

Lisse quietly updated its MyRace line this week with a conventional 5-in. 720p PMP called the Lisse H10. Let's take a look:
The tiny player sports a 1280x720 TFT LCD screen with a resolution that's comparable to some 13-inch netbooks, notes PMP Today. There's also an HDMI out, FM radio transmitter and voice recording.
The video format support list goes thusly: RM.RMVB, AVI (Xvid, DivX), WMV, ASF, DAT, MPG, MP4, VOB, SMI. Audio? Try MP3, WMA, AAC, WAV, OGG, FLAC, APE. As you can probably tell from all the translating going on in the source links, this is probably going to be an import for you, for now. [Lisse via PMP Today]
