Haven't tried the Telus Radio yet...probably will try that in a couple days to see if its better than the new Sprint radio. So far data throughput has been higher and the signal strength is higher (only judging by the "bars", no technical measurements.). Testing was done in the Pacific NW, specifically the Puget Sound area of Washington.

However, I can only recommended this radio over Sprint's 1.11 version if you don't care about heat and battery life. This radio is AGGRESSIVE, the phone definitely emits more heat and battery life seems a little worse than 1.11. This radio works for me though because I have a charger everyone I go, one at home, one at the office, and one in my car. The heat doesn't seem like its going to break my phone, but definitely hotter.

EDIT: Not as hot as I originally thought. After some extended data sessions, the heat seems to be in range with Sprint's previous radio release. Battery life is just a tad worse, not much.

The difference doesn't seem much, but it is a little faster for data and has better signal strength. Its probably not enough of a difference to offset the worse battery life and more heat.
