Hmmm...I never saw those reports. Were they published by a reputable publication?
WCDMA vendors have made some pretty optimistic speed claims but they are having a hard time getting the networks rolled out in any meaningful way. It looks like 1xEV-DO (not EV-DV) will win the race to true broadband. The 1x Express Network is really just a stop-gap measure until faster technologies are commercialized. __________________
