Your phone will not tell you that you're using EVDO Rev. A. You will need to do a speed test either from your phone, or using a phone as a modem, and then doing a speed test on your notebook/desktop. ANy upload speeds around the 200-500 ballpark will be Rev. A.
ALso, you will not see this improvement if Sprint has not deployed Rev. A in your market.
Didnt mean to be an a-hole, its just this question has been asked and answered a bunch of times..anyways hope this helps

thanks for the excellent summary. Is there a way to determine if Rev. A has been employed in my area? Portland, Oregon?
