Cardiff By The Sea, CA | Re: Alaska has EV-DO - How to Use it No. Alaska does not have EVDO. ACS LOCATED IN alaska has evdo. a Verizon User cannot use EVDO service in Alaska --- UNLESS... loop hole: each carrier has a FCC mandate to allow 15day service trial. so... if you are a verizon customer... this is what you'd do to use the evdo in Alaska.
1) get Verizon EVDO broadband service. (i want to set you up with this when you are ready).
2) Go to alaska (heck fishing and AnselAdams style photo expeditions are not uncommon up there) and call me back to "release your evdo ESN from your verizon account"
3) Get a 15 day trial run of the ACS service in Alaska.
4) Day 15. Cancel it and just pay for the time of use prorated.
---Everyone wins ACS gets a few bucks they'd have never made otherwise. you get service... and you only had to buy one card. thats how its done... to get Wireless Broadband started on your Laptop... evdo-coverage.com |

Cardiff By The Sea, CA | EVDO in Atlanta, Boston, NYC... We basically use 4 criteria in determining where to roll out EVDO next. So if you are in Atlanta, Orlando, Boston, NYC, or Houston this is relevant to you.
1) Early adoption of Technology Demographics
2) Market Size (laptops in area)
3) Geo Isolation
4) Cost to delploy vs. profit forcast.
So.. to answer your question... i There is an NDA that prevents me from telling you WHEN.. but... i can say that SD, SC and Vegas were the first 3 due to these precise factors. Atlanta... by the way... is a huge tech hub... so you are very close...
for up to the hour coverage of EVDO rollout locations... see »evdo-coverage.com coverage maps and press releases will be available there...

Marietta, GA | I have had express network all you can eat for over a year at 80 bucks. When this becomes available I am gonna upgrade. my only complaint is the round-trip time which I hear won't change with evdo. I get 500+ msec round trip and would like something like ~50 so I could play quake and do voip which my company is goint to in their offices.. |
