Sprint's EV-DO Revision A Broadband Upgrade
It seems as though the EV-DO race between Sprint and Verizon is never ending. Sprint is gaining a slight lead with the announcement of their upcoming implementation of Rev. A EV-DO release. Sprint's customers in areas where it's rolled out, will enjoy an average download speeds of 450 – 800 kbps; and an average upload speeds of up to 300 – 400 kbps. Verizon is still operating under Rev. 0, so it will be interesting to watch how they will respond to this announcement.
