High-Speed Wireless Data Services Extend North of Flagstaff, South
of Eloy; Axcess Broadband Technology Delivers Speeds Comparable to
Cable or DSL

PHOENIX--(BUSINESS WIRE)--Dec. 6, 2006--Alltel Wireless (NYSE:
AT), America's largest network, now offers the largest wireless
broadband coverage area in Phoenix. No other wireless carrier matches
the Axcess Broadband footprint, which extends from north of Flagstaff
to south of Eloy. Alltel's next generation EVDO (evolution data
optimized) service provides customers with unlimited wireless access
to the Internet at speeds comparable to wired broadband connections
such as cable modem or DSL.

Using Axcess Broadband, customers can access advanced business and
entertainment applications from their laptops, smartphones or handsets
at average speeds of 400 to 700 Kbps with maximum speeds of up to 2.4
Mbps. Axcess Broadband makes it easy to surf the Internet, access
e-mail and calendars and download large, graphic-rich files from
outside the home or office.

"This is a major expansion of our existing Axcess Broadband
coverage that underscores Alltel's commitment to meeting the growing
wireless data needs of customers in Arizona," said Terri Larson,
Alltel vice president of business solutions for Arizona. "Now that
Alltel has the largest EVDO footprint in the Phoenix area, both
traveling professionals and casual users have even greater freedom to
remain connected to secure, reliable data services while on the go."

Alltel introduced Axcess Broadband in Phoenix in 2005 and is
rapidly expanding its high-speed network across the country. In the
past year, Alltel has launched Axcess Broadband in metropolitan areas
such as Tampa, Charlotte, and Cleveland; in smaller cities such as
Little Rock, Ark.; Raleigh, N.C., and Savannah, Ga., and in towns such
as Temple, Texas; Dothan, Al., and Durango, Colo.

Axcess Broadband is available for $59.99 a month for unlimited use
with qualifying voice plans. In addition to supporting a wide range of
productivity enhancing business applications, it enables Alltel's
Axcess TV, with more than 25 channels, and XM radio, with 20 of the
best satellite radio music channels. To experience the high-speed
network, customers will need an EVDO-capable handset, such as the
MOTORAZR V3c, or a laptop PC data card, such as the Kyocera Passport
1xEVDO PC Card.
