I haven't been following this thread, so I apologize if any of this is repeated. I have a Sprint EVDO ExpressCard for my MacBook Pro. I'm sitting at a coffee shop in Eden Prairie and I have full signal strength. When I run the speed test at http://www.speakeasy.net/speedtest/ from the Chicago server, I get 1753kb (214KB) down and 263kb (32KB) up. Works fine for email, web, YouTube, and torrents. I even played a little Guild Wars thanks to CrossOver. I have "unlimited data" thanks to Sprint's "unlimited plan" and I've never received any warning for over use and I do use it almost everyday. I also pay an arm and a leg. :) -Chris * * Harv Nelson wrote: > I'm out in nevada/arizona camping on the dessert ...
