I hope you're not hanging your hat on "a year or two..." Verizon has been rolling out the FIOS service since 2005, and most of the country still isn't close to having that available.

Don't get me wrong, I'm not blaming Verizon - I know these rollouts of new technology ar very difficult. Which is why I don't believe any reports about LTE "in a year or two." Maybe in a small number of very lucky test areas, but on a national basis? Nah... More like 5 years I would guess.
