What happens if the iPhone 5 is 4G LTE?

Does anyone know if the 3G network will ultimately be phased-out? Purchasing another iPhone 4S, just hope it won't be obsolete in the near future if the iPhone 5 is 4G LTE or Verizon pulls another fast one on customers and no longer wants to support 3G service.

some day 3g will be obsolete.....but not any time in the next few years. the iphone5 will likely be like the rest of the LTE devices that are out now. it will be able to utilize LTE where it's available, but will also have 3g ability. there are WAY too many 3g devices out there and way to few LTE markets to get rid of 3g any time in the next few years.

verizon is currently phasing out "3g only" devices. they want every phone to be LTE capable......they will all still be 3g capable as well.
