played with my uncle's evo all weekend (he was visiting from san diego). he complained about speeds, but we theorized that speeds would be better in kansas city (sprint headquarters).

not so. it rarely exceeded 1 mbps. not much faster than my blackberry pearl (which is PRE- 3G!)

definitely slower than my crappy home DSL. so the evo will not replace my home internet connection, so i'm probably upgrading to a 3G blackberry, which PC world said was faster anyway (on AT&T network). dreams of going wireless & canceling the home phone are crushed.

PC World tested evo in 6 cities, results were not great:

I'm consistently getting 16-20Mbps on my Sony Betamax here in Raleigh. Sprint is testing their 8G network here, and apparently will be rolling it out to other markets in the fall. The 4G will only be around for a few months.

Hi Tommy – I'm trying to compare 4G on a mobile phone, not a Sony Betamax.

And like Billy said, I though 10mbps was the peak for 4G….???

Are you sure your Betamax isn't on a something like DSL or cable?

In reply to Tommy Lee. Hi Tommy - was that on a 4G network? If so, where? and what device are you using?

Ive actually just hit 8 where i live… Ive had the phone since Friday and have had nothing but great success with the phones 4g capabilities (while living in Reading, PA) and have nothing but fast streams and not chop videos in high quality

I'm in San Antonio, Texas. Texas as a whole seems to have very good Sprint 4G service. My laptop PC using a Sprint Overdrive can often get as high as 7 mbps, with an average speed of around 5 mbps. Using Linux Ubuntu that is.

When I use Windows 7 or XP I seldom get over 4 mbps and usually around 3 mbps.

I've had my Sprint Evo since Friday night. So far at least, I've never gotten more than 3 mbps when using 4G. Using 3G has never yielded more than 1.3 mbps. So, in theory, 4G on the Evo has been 3 times faster at peak speeds after a few days of usage testing.

As for the theoretical 10 mbps obtainable, I have yet to meet anyone personally that has gotten much better than the 7 I've been able to get from time to time.

I thought the theoretical limit of WiMax generation 1 was 10Mbps?

That was on Sprint 4G here in Raleigh using a Sony Betamax.
