2011? Not a CHANCE. Building out LTE requires an ENTIRE new network. Expect to see MAYBE 10-20 cities up by 2011.
For instance, there still isn't complete 3G coverage on any of the carriers, and most of them started that 5 years ago, and for Sprint and Verizon it's a native upgrade within their current technology platform (so a network upgrade, as compared to 4G being an entirely new network for everyone)
And, unfortunately Sprint is first to the beat with a "4G" network, not that it's really a TRUE 4G network right now.
As for Sprint, I agree, they're a HORRIBLE company to do business with. For instance: With AT&T they harassed me for six months because of a billing error (I had a negative account balance, and they kept calling me and telling me they were going to terminate my service, long after I had cancelled it if I didn't pay the bill). NOBODY in the company seemed to be able to figure out what was wrong, but they kept apologizing, notated the account and told me to just ignore any correspondence. It took six months to fix it, but the whole time they were understanding and even offered me free service for a short period of time if I was interested.
Sprint however I can't even COUNT the times in the last MONTH they've COMPLETELY screwed up my account beyond belief and then can't understand why I'm angry with them.
And T-Mobile customer service? Absolutely AMAZING. It shows how well they treat their employees in how well their employees treat their customers.
