Re: Verizon is too slow.

I don't think so, they have said they are waiting on the much faster EV-DV standard...which isn't done yet, so it will be about two years before they can start their roll out.

Verizon will probably have national EV-DO before NexTel can get FLASH OFDM very far, and NexTel could have FLASH OFDM nationwide before Sprint does EV-DV, but there is no real indication that NexTel will try.

You might like Sprint more, and they may have been first with their current network, but since they can't even start deploying the next network until after VZ claims they will be all done, I wouldn't go betting on Sprint.

Sprint: the spontaneous provider.

If their data services are anything like their phone services, no thank you. If I had a dime for every dropped call, I'd be retired.

I'll be switching to Verizon real soon now. Been waiting for them to work out the bugs in number portability.

Re: Verizon is too slow.

And they'll tell you that you can use a datacable with it, while you rack up charges, then after you owe them 400 dollars they'll let you know that you have to have a pccard.

Sprint will be there with something national and reliable before any national verizon rollout.
