Verizon Wireless confirmed this morning that its 4G network would launch on Sunday, December 5. Long Term Evolution (LTE) service will be available in 38 cities and 60 airports immediately upon its launch.

Verizon’s 4G LTE service will support download speeds between five and 12 Mbps and uploads between two and five Mbps. The LG VL600 USB modem will be available at launch, making it the first device to support the service. It will be on sale for $100 after a $50 rebate and a two-year contract.

Verizon subscribers will be able to select from two 4G LTE mobile broadband plans: $50 per month for five GB of data or $80 for 10 GB. Overages will cost $10 per GB.
