I'm in DC and while it is listed as "coming soon" it is indeed live now; I get a great 4G signal at home.

I have never seen 3G so fast as on my EVO. I previously had a TouchPro (original) and while it wasn't slow, browsing on 3G with the EVO is very fast. I'll probably only turn on 4G when I want to download a large file or for media intensive activities. I honestly consider 4G a bonus with the EVO and would have bought it even if I were never going to use 4G.

This phone is AWESOME, hands-down the best phone I've had!

Here in atlanta as well which has decent 4g coverage. I actually haven't even been using 4g at all, the evo really makes the best use of 3g. I can browse full web pages with ease, it almost feels like my desktop, no BSing. I can watch youtube HQ with relative ease. This phone is rediculously fast and even though I don't like the additional 10(in my case 20 since I have 2 evos) I can understand where they are coming from. You will in fact be using alot more data, either 3g or 4g, this phone is amazing. The 4g I can see being used for high data extensive stuff, like downloading really huge files or hotspotting or browsing while on the phone but other than that my 4g will remain off.

I have 4G coverage but does not receive any signal at all. I'm from Charlotte, NC

I have 4g if I go out to my street, but not in my house (I have been using wifi instead). I must be in one of those spots that just slightly out of the closest repeater's range.

[RidleyJ329]

not to get off topic but ive noticed some people mention turning 4g off and on. i thought is was like the evdo meaning as long as you were in range you got it automatically. so in other words turning it off and on is kind of like pushing the boost button?

No.. if you're in range of 4g and you have it on youll get it automatically. If you leave range of 4g itll switch to 3g automatically but if you leave 4g on your radio will constantly search for a 4g signal... and kill the battery.
