Just a few quick things...I only pass on info when it's reliable.
p.s. if u don't believe me or whatever kiss my a$$, I could care less just remember where u heard it when u did.

1) Verizon will have EVDO rev A(voice + data) out before sprint does...I can't give an exact time just yet but trust me they will.(sprint says 2007 so i'm thinkin verizon is pushin for the end of this year)
Current Rev. 0 phones will not be compatible, but Rev. a phones will be backwards compatible w/ Rev. 0

2)Sprint will be the first Network to launch Q-chat though!

3)Flarion(3g iden maybe??) is dead.

4)My same source tells me GSM's next gen data network(UMTS maybe??) is a EVDO killer...he said the data speeds are very fast. I believe that is going to be rolling out very soon.

Believe me or not I got this from a very reliable source.

Hope this isn't old a$$ news.

Now if only Cingular or T-Mobile could get some good HSPDA phones, or even some not so good ones - anything is better than none. I returned my UMTS phone without even opening it and got the PPC 6700 with Sprint.
