Alltel Wireless (NYSE: AT), America's largest network, has
extended its Axcess Broadband service to Youngstown, Ohio and
Fayetteville, N.C. The company also has expanded its wireless
broadband service in the Norfolk, Va. area. This next-generation EVDO
(evolution data optimized) technology provides customers with
unlimited wireless access to the Internet at speeds comparable to
wired broadband connections such as cable modem or DSL.

Using the service, 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 while on
the go.

"Alltel Wireless is committed to meeting the growing data needs of
our customers throughout the country," said Elisabeth Owen, president
of business solutions for Alltel Wireless. "Axcess Broadband wireless
Internet service delivers an unmatched wireless broadband experience
that will keep both traveling business professionals and casual users
connected with the fastest and most reliable data services."

Alltel began offering Axcess Broadband in 2005 and is rapidly
expanding its high-speed network across the country, giving it one of
the largest EVDO footprints of any carrier. Alltel has introduced
Axcess Broadband in metropolitan areas such as Cleveland, Phoenix,
Tampa and Charlotte; in smaller cities such as Little Rock, Ark.,
Raleigh, N.C., and Savannah, Ga.; and in towns such as Jonesboro, Ark., Dothan, Ala., and Casa Grande, Ariz.

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
silver or fire red MOTORAZR V3m, or a laptop PC data card, such as the
Kyocera Passport 1xEVDO PC Card.
