I love the editorial comments. 
14Mbps sounds great but the three questions on everyones mind is latency, upstream bandwidth and dare I mention cost?
14 Mbps doesn't do much good if its $250 a month after all.

| If there was still AT&T as it was in the early 90's you would have had that by now. Alas, there isn't. What remains is a pathetic shadow of a company that once cared about its people and its customers, where technical excellence was once valued and executives knew what was going on because they were home-grown, not in some MBA idiot farm. |

Tulsa, OK | my point is I've been promised the moon many times in the past....but I still have no moon. I'll believe 14mbps when I actually use it.
In the meantime I can promise 100mbps over wireless....or any speeds for that matter. |

EVDO works pretty well -- if you can stomach paying Verizon $45 / month ON TOP of their high cell plan charges.
Hey, that logo's the new Samsung -- anybody know when it's coming out?

True. What Nokia ignores is the time, money and will it would take to upgrade or build infrastructure to support such speeds. It will certainly be further than 2006.
I was just rambling about AT&T. It's a sour spot for me. |

Re: my new webhosting company
said by KyleC :Hosted on my Treo 650 Yeah! great business model. Am going to be your competition! Unfortuntaly my Treo 650 server resets perioically for no apparent reason as I fudged around with the firmware. + I agree with the comment above that blazing speeds on a small screen are not doing us any good. Unless there I Live TV or Playboy launches a LIVE video feed.
Am not even going to go to the 'My thumb is hurting from typing this post thing' story.

Heheh I will believe it when I see it! Very lofty goals and claims though. I guess that can be a good thing to set your sights high.
BTW - In regards to the Treo 650 resetting issue... Exchange that thing in a local store as soon as you can. It's a known problem and they will replace it with the new ones with the correct firmware. If it's with Cingular - E-Mail me at the address in my profile for more help if needed. |

Re: 500 kbps here now...
My Treo 600 goes slow, with Cingular GPRS, however with discount it's only an extra $16 a month for unlimited. My need for high bandwidth on a 2-4" LCD with microscopic keyboard is pretty limited.
