Nokia Ace LTE arriving on AT&T next March? Earlier today we wrote about the HTC Radiant and Samsung Mandel, and now it looks like we’ve got more information about the devices. Paul Thurrott from Winsupersite posted some additional details about the upcoming LTE phones. According to his sources, the phones will be arriving on AT&T before the middle of 2012 and will be revealed at CES 2012. And to add one more device to the mix, he claims that the Nokia Ace LTE phone is also arriving on AT&T on March 18^th. That’s the first time we’ve had a specific release date for the phone. The Nokia Lumia 710 is also said to be arriving on Verizon in April, but not as a 4G LTE device. It sure seems like AT&T has dibs on LTE Windows Phone devices. Stay tuned for more information.
