I could see using Rev A for a PC Card, but in the phone, the speed rendering pages is limited by the device, not the connection. I hardly notice a difference over WiFi and EVDO when in a good signal area. 90% of my connection is e-mail anyway, and I only tether when I absolutely have to, which is about 10 minutes a month.
Rev A is the next thing to help mobile connections, but for the incremental step it gives on the actual device, it's not needed "yet". I think as we use more and more mobile video and video communication this will change, and it's good that the providers are increasing their network ability to handle it, but I think we can wait until the next device to have Rev A included.
In the data agreement with Verizon, they don't allow any multimedia communication anyway, unless it's on their system, so even with the bump, we still "can't" use it anyway....
I personally am looking for a stable, slim, functional, long battery life device for my next phone. Let's shoot for that first before working about a 200 kbps bump in speed from 900 to 1100...
