riiiight

The slowest of the three cellular data networks, the Sprint network delivered on average 494Kbit/sec. download speeds to my notebook. That's roughly a third slower than AT&T's network. Its average upload speed was 294Kbit/sec. and the network's top speed was 1.2Mbit/sec. It connected in 3.7 seconds.
494kbit? Hmm thats strange, everywhere I go with my Sprint I clock ~700kbit-1mbit download rates. I've been to a half dozen states, urban and rural-ish areas.

At work I benchmarked AT&T vs Sprint quite a few times and Sprint always came out on top transfer speed-wise. Our users have been trading in their AT&T cards for Sprint left right and center over the past year or two as well.

YMMV definitely on this one I guess.

Agree, Sprint EVDO has always been regarded as faster than Verizon EVDO.
