    Pretty lousy speed on big red... Via the Droid X (EV-DO Rev. A) from home, and they think this is suitable for the iPhone?

    Re: Share Your Connection Speed

    This is my wide range of Verizon 1x and Ev results. Oh, and the top is my 25/25 FiOS home service.
    You might not guess it but the 59/124 is actually a 1x result, while the 15/19 result is Ev. Thats what happens when you run Ev at 1900 and 1x at 850. 850 always wins with a weak signal.

    Re: Share Your Connection Speed

    Yea, those speeds really don't count. It was just funny. That location has about a -100 850 signal and a -115 1900 Ev signal. So, I am happy to pull down any data there at all. Ev usually does just fine.

    Yea, kind of surprising that I got it to work on 1x.

    Here is my iPhone 4S AT&T data speeds from NYC yesterday. The latest one is around noon near Columbia, upper Manhattan: 836Kbps down/949 up.

    Seems faster than the Verizon iPhone speeds. Only one data point though.

    The one below that is earlier in the morning from rural CT, about an hour away. [​IMG]

    WOW. Was this when the other person in WI - your husband - was not logged on? ;)

    JK...very impressive speeds. My rural area in CT is not that fast...rural, but still somewhat crowded.
