The first four words of this post’s title are truly amazing… Verizon Decides To Standardize. It is a rare occasion that Verizon decides to do anything like the rest of earth so it is a big deal when Verizon chairman and CEO, Ivan Seidenberg, talks about the choice to move to LTE.

Arun Sarin, CEO of Vodafone, and Verizon Communications Inc. chairman and CEO Ivan Seidenberg, spoke about the technology choice at the Goldman Sachs Communacopia conference yesterday.

Sarin laid out a path toward LTE evolution within the next three to four years.

I don’t know if LTE has (yet) been crowned the 4G global standard (hellno, please feel free to chime in), but the fact that Vodafone is going to LTE and AT&T is, at least, looking it, leads me to believe that BlackBerry handset selections a few years from now should be pretty sweet.
