AT&T Starts Installing 4G LTE Equipment in Apple Retail Stores? 4G LTE iPhone 5?

It was reported yesterday that some of the major Apple carriers were testing an iPhone having the capabilities of the 4G LTE, now the follow-up of the news reported by Engadget reveals that AT&T has recently installed LTE equipment in one of the Apple retail stores, at least.
Now we’ve received the image you see above, which shows some 4G LTE equipment that was recently installed in a major Apple store — by AT&T, according to our source. Making things somewhat more interesting is the equipment itself, one piece of which supports only the 700MHz and AWS bands — both of which AT&T plans to use for its LTE network if the T-Mobile acquisition goes through.
We have earlier reported that the next generation Phone 5 might support the HSPA+ 4G standard until Apple becomes able to deliver more advanced 4G LTE standard early next year. But the recent report suggests that Apple is indeed testing LTE-enabled iPhones, perhaps in real-world settings and the report about an AT&T 4G LTE enabled iPhone 5 exposed by Lulzsec last hacked documents seems true.
