What's that in the sky? Is it a bird? A plane? No, it's EE's new floating mobile mast. Umm, what?
It sounds bizarre, but EE has confirmed it will starting exploring what it's calling "Air Masts" to help bridge the gaps in coverage in hard-to-reach areas around the UK.
98% Coverage
EE says it will have 98% of the population covered by its 4G network by the end of 2015, so the Air Masts could well be with us in the coming months.
The network had originally pledged 98% 4G coverage by the end of 2014, but an EE spokesperson told TechRadar "much changed since we made that claim, notably the announcement of the annual license fees from Ofcom."
"This affected 4G roll out investment significantly, and we announced we'd have to climb back from original ambition."
