I have not done anything related to net-didnt change ROM's the last thing i've done was overclock to 787Mhz but that was about a month ago. Then few days ago i heard the great news - 4G was lit up in Boston area. Come to think of it it was lit up around the same time i noticed the drop in my 3G performance. Conspiracy brain fart: has Sprint lowered 3G speeds to show off how "fast" 4G is? Anyone else noticing this?
Hope not... OR... to force us all off our nice older plans AND make us buy new phones & upgrade to expensive plans AND pay the extra $10 4G fee?!! Ha!

Hope not... i'm in Minneapolis area, they're rolling out now & Announcing in a month... I've heard people were getting faster 3G in the 4G area... but that may have been their phone (4G) & only they get fast 3G.. (or the perception of it faster as the processor is faster).

Wouldn't that suck..! I'm waiting to break the 300K line & end up getting screwed with 1/6th of that instead!?
