Were those before or after it came out? The early reviews for the t-mo hd2 was the same as Europe...until it was released with double the rom and ram.

Here's a Whole thread about it on XDA [Q] HSPA+ - xda-developers

Conclusion appears to be no Hspa+ Only speedtest.net giving false results.

I don't know anything about the HD7. It may not have hspa+, it may have it but it's disabled and needs to be enabled, or it could even have it enabled for all I know.

What I do know is, hspa+ is backwards compatible with hspa. So if a device supports hspa, it will see a speed increase in an hspa+ area.

He's got some kind of wifi connection going... Not 3g/4g.
That's how he gets those numbers.
Or he has photoshop on his computer and is changing the numbers.
I call shinanigans.

No shenanigans, it's a bug with Windows Phone7 and mobilespeedtest.com, similar to how you can use Opera Mini and get an abnormally high Speed Result.

Look Sprints 3G is now 6600 kbps+

whatever it is or isn't, I still don't pay an extra $10 ;).

Neither do I after my discounts. And I call any cell phone any time without it costing me a dime.

Let's call each other tomorrow morning and leave the phones connected the entire day... We'll see which one is cheaper.
