So we know that the Samsung Galaxy NotePro 12.2 will be headed to Verizon with 4G LTE support, but what about other carriers? Or will it be a Verizon exclusive? Well the good news is that if you weren’t planning on signing up with Verizon, you might be pleased to learn that the Samsung Galaxy NotePro 12.2 has been recently spotted at the FCC with support for AT&T’s HSPA+ and LTE networks. Of course this is hardly confirmation that the tablet will be released on AT&T since the carrier has yet to announce their plans, but chances are that it will, but until then we suppose you should probably not get your hopes up just yet.
It is unclear when and how much the tablet will cost if you were to purchase it via AT&T, but as it stands the 64GB WiFi-only model is available for pre-order via Office Depot and it already costs a whopping $850, so we can only assume that the model with LTE radios on board will cost a little bit more, perhaps close to or a little over the $1,000 mark. The Galaxy NotePro 12.2 is Samsung’s latest tablet that they unveiled alongside the Galaxy TabPro at CES 2014 earlier this year. The tablet will sport a 12.2-inch Super Clear LCD display with a resolution of 2560×1600, Samsung’s Exynos 5 Octa 5420 processor clocked at 1.9GHz with 3GB of RAM, an S Pen stylus typical of Note devices, and will run on Android 4.4 KitKat.

Network neutrality—the idea that Internet service providers (ISPs) should treat all data that travels over their networks equally—is a principle that EFF strongly supports. However, the power to enforce equal treatment on the Internet can easily become the power to control the Internet in less beneficent ways. Some people have condemned last week’s court decision to reject the bulk of the Federal Communications Commission’s (FCC) Open Internet Order as a threat to Internet innovation and openness. Others hailed it as a victory against dangerous government regulation of the Internet. Paradoxically, there is a lot of truth to both of these claims.
LTE speeds have been picking up in, er, speed, and it would certainly make the standard issue Wi-Fi connection at coffee shops snail-like in comparison whenever one is connected via your mobile device. Well, many tablet manufacturers seem to be happy rolling out devices in variants, where one will be a Wi-Fi only model, while the other would have the added ability to roll with 4G radio connectivity as well as a SIM slot. It does seem as though Verizon might be getting a special version of the LG G Pad 8.3 that will feature LTE connectivity, and this particular model has arrived at the FCC for its collective nod of approval.
