Re: What happened to 7.2Mbps?
Is that supposed to provide some kind of information?

Both EVDO and HSDPA can get more than 2Mbps in the real world. It will depend on a few things
1) Version (EVDO REV 0 doesn't, neither does HSDPA 1.8)
2) Back haul
3) Spectrum/capacity
Won't do much good if these any one of these conditions aren't met.

Not a huge difference, especially given the volume of samples.
Those are typically mini browser phone-based stats
Datacard/Tethered are here

You might want to talk 3G phones too, since ATT has data plans which allow tethering which works the same as a data card. You don't need the card if you can connect to your phone via Bluetooth or USB just about anytime you want.

EVDO can more often get over 2Mbps in real world. |

Was talking data cards not phones. The voice numbers are obvious.
Doesn't matter who ATT considers competition, they are far behind the major players. |

It says in the headline that its HSUPA yet in the quote it says HSDPA, did I read it wrong or theres a typo? That's still fast considering its running off of cell site. |

True, that Sprint may have a better datacard ratio than Verizon Wireless, however AT&T has ~70 million GSM/3G subs, Verizon Wireless has almost as many, and lower churn rate.
Sprint has ~40 million CDMA subs + ~15million iDEN subs + MVNO.
I don't think in general, AT&T/Verizon Wireless are all that 'worried', as they have a lot of corp contracts as well as a large number of subscribers. Currently, I don't think that AT&T or Verizon is heavily promoting its datacards. Sprint on the otherhand is promoting data.

Verizon is kicking their arse too with about 210m coverage with EVDO. The reality is though that Sprint is winning with laptop cards. 3gstore says Sprint is outselling Verizon 2:1 with laptop cards. ATT really isn't much of a player yet. |

I don't think they're really worried about Sprint. Verizon Wireless is their main competitor.

| What happened to 7.2Mbps? Is ATT not able to supply that much bandwidth to the sites? They have some serious catching up to do with Sprint/Alltel in both performance and 3G coverage. Sprint/Alltel cover about 230m population with EVDO (they roam 3G to each other). I don't think ATT is much past 150m pops with 3G. |
