Willy Wonka’s 4G/LTE in Indianapolis

Verizon is turning on a few more 4G/LTE markets today, and my city happens to be one of them. While I don’t have a 4G phone, I do have the Verizon MiFi for review, and it’s blazing along. I live in the northeast of Indianapolis, right on the edge of the LTE zone, but it still works just as if I was downtown. To commemorate turning on 4G, Verizon has been giving away the Droid Charge in a Willy Wonka-esque way. The first 100 people, I was probably only the 10th person, can go into one of two stores, pick out a 4G chocolate bar (you have to ask for it), and hope to win a golden ticket. I don’t know what happens if you win because I didn’t… But from my understanding, you get a free 4G Droid Charge (I don’t believe you have to sign a contract). If you live in or around Indianapolis, go try your luck! Can’t hurt anything unless they force you to get a Motorola Citrus.
