Re: Sprint the worst?

Isn't it funny, a rag that gets some big advertising bucks always seems to "pick" one that's a suprise to all. I had just read this:
I was in and around New York City and traveling out to San Francisco, Las Vegas, Salt Lake City, Detroit and Baltimore. And with that rig and travel, I was able to directly compare two competitive wireless data networks: Verizon's BroadbandAccess and Sprint's Mobile Broadband. And in many ways, the Sprint product was superior to the higher-priced Verizon riff.

Then I read this "other" one. Guess if I was pushing SPrint over VZ, I would be using thestreet's article. If I wanted to hype AT&T, I would be using PCwhoever. Bottom line, what works best, in REAL WORLD use, is the way to go. I didn't even know AT&T had anything that was considered "broadband" . Not some "drive down the street and see how fast it is" test. Having been using Sprint's EVDO-Rev-A for the past 8 months, and having seen the "other guy" in action. I'll stay where I am. It's more consistent and predicable then any other brand I've used.

I think Sprint actually beats Verizon in most cases (where I have tried both). I can't speak to AT&T -- although the article read like a commercial for AT&T.

Sprint was said to have the slowest network yet pages loaded the fastest (although tiny differences).
