If it's relatively small is it possible to eliminate the Ev options so my phone doesn't default to it? It's pretty annoying waiting for the Ev to not work and then connecting to the 1x (almost a minute sometimes).

Thanks
Here are the specific speeds in relation to Sprint's 1xRTT vs Sprint's EvDO:
o CDMA2000 1xRTT = 144 kb/s



o EvDO
§ Rev. 0
· Avg Download = 400-700 kb/s (Max = 2MB)
· Avg Upload= 50-70 kb/s (Max= 144 kb/s)
§ Rev. A
· Avg Download= 600-1.4 kb/s (Max= 3.1MB)
· Avg Upload= 350-500 kb/s (Max= 1.8MB)
The difference is not even close. Well worth the EvDO plan.


Much Luv,
