Last week Verizon teased us by saying that a 4G LTE network expansion was "coming soon," and today they've finally announced which areas of the country will be getting in on the high-speed data fun. Beginning on Thursday, May 19th, the following markets will have access to Big Red's LTE network:

• Montgomery, Ala., which includes Prattville, Millbrook, Wetumpka, Shorter, Tallassee, Troy, Tuskegee, and Maxwell Air Force Base.
• Tallahassee, Fla., which includes the State Capitol Complex, Florida State University, Florida A&M University, Killearn, Bradfordville, Norfleet, and Woodville.
• Gainesville, Fla., including downtown, the University of Florida, Arredondo, Paradise, and Fairbanks.
• Fayetteville-Lumberton, N.C., including Fort Bragg, Pope AFB, Rockfish, Spring Lake, Wade, Eastover, Vander, Hope Mills, St. Pauls, Raeford, Aberdeen, Pinehurst, Southern Pines, Red Springs, and Lumber Bridge.

Additionally, Verizon will be expanding its 4G LTE coverage in and around Philadelphia, Pa., which includes the areas of Gloucester, Camden and Burlington Counties in New Jersey as well as Bucks County in Pennsylvania. While this latest 4G expansion certainly isn't the largest one we've seen from Verizon, we're always happy to see new markets being lit up with LTE, especially when they're major areas like the ones announced today. If you happen to be a Verizon customer with a 4G-capable device in one of the areas listed above, be sure to let us know in the comments below!

UPDATE: Verizon has announced even more markets that'll be enjoying 4G LTE by the time Thursday rolls around. They are:

• Mobile, Ala.
• Pensacola, Fla.
• Denver, Colo., including Broomfield, Lafayette, Thornton, Golden, Brighton, Parker, Highlands Ranch, and North Castle Pines.
