Thinking of upgrading from the 6700 to the 6800 to get Rev A capabilities, but most of the posts here talk about Rev A on Sprint. How is it on Verizon?

Verizon is Rev A. I know the Northeast area is fully Rev A. I'm not sure about the other markets.

Rev A on the 6800 is great. I've gotten 1200-1500 DL, 500-800 UL.

Ok, if the Verizon 6800 doesn't support Rev A thats one thing, but to claim that Verizon doesn't have Rev A at all is very misleading. Their mobile cards clearly support Rev A, and apparently nearly all of their data coverage supports it.

i apologize for my word choice.. i was rushing my reply and didnt double check what i posted, but my point was that sprint is taking things to a new level with their internet.. and if you noticed, i was talking about mobile internet.. not aircards. in which sprint has that beat too with their aircards, lol.. but to answer the initial question further.. sprint users are the only ones with the leaked rom and upcoming rom update, as of now

You're welcome

I will add that as of July 1, 2007 the ENTIRE Verizon EVDO footprint is REV A capable.
