I think bazookaman has actually activated a 5S on the LTE on PP.
From what I have read, they are still very much in shakedown mode and have had a lot of "issues."
Unless you have a new 4G device that you are dying to get activated, I would suggest waiting until they advertise 4G on their website.
AFAIK, you can only get the SIMs from dealers right now, and they appear to be in tight supply.
Some dealers are grossly overcharging, but other appear to be reasonable. I saw a list of dealers and what they are charging, but I don't have the link any more.
Also, the 4G speeds are heavily throttled, but still better than 3G
Maximum 4G Data Speed: 3.5 Mbps
Maximum Download Speed: 3 Mbps
Maximum Upload Speed: 1 Mbps
The big, and it is big, advantage to the 4G/LTE, is that you can bring a newer 4G device to PP without jumping through the flashing/jailbreaking hoops.
My advice, wait a bit, unless you have a new phone to activate.
