Re: Sprint Broadband

my understanding is that the rev A is limited to under 1.5Mb due to it being a T1 line basically with a little dedicated to something that sprint uses.

 Exactly.

I have a RevA card in a RevA area. I am the only person on my tower (very rural area). I get 1300 down. The capacity is on in the card to handle 3.1mbps, but the tower can't push it since it doesn't have a big enough pipe. But, like I said, my upload and latency is greatly improved.

This could be helped whenever WiMax starts expanding. I heard that they are going to use the WiMax to backhaul the EVDO towers. True or not? I dono. Just what I heard in the ole rumor mill.

There are plenty over on evdomaps.com that were able to get 2-2.5Mbps on RevA. But that's the exception, now the rule. Most get 600k-1.4mbps.

BTW, Sprint WiMAX will also have combo cards that can do EVDO as well.

On that note.. Dell laptops will be shipping with built in evdo-A.. one has to wonder how long behind will it be for them to ship laptops with both platforms.
