Rogers is announcing today that it is planning to roll out 44 new LTE markets this Spring for its customers. The rollout is expected over the next few months, and while there isn't a definitive list of every new market, Rogers is listing a few areas as a primer of what's to come:
- Saint John, New Brunswick
- Medicine Hat, Alberta
- Sault Ste. Marie, Ontario
- Guelph, Ontario
- Muskokas, Ontario
- Collingwood, Ontario
- "multiple cities" in Quebec
As part of its LTE rollout announcement, Rogers is also giving more information on the deployment of that network over the 2600MHz frequency. The carrier indicates that it will start to utilize the 2600MHz spectrum in every one of its markets, including 34 of the 44 new markets planned. You'll need a 2600MHz-capable device -- Rogers lists the LG Optimus G as one -- to take advantage, but Rogers says it will make more available as the network goes live.
