Sprint speeds suck for most. Thats why they have lost alot of customers including eric and myself. If you get good speeds consider yourself lucky as the majority do not.

My verizons 3g is 10x what i had on sprint.

@horndoctor hmm when I was in STL I got 2.4mbps down, however once I got to my bros house in Collinsville it dropped to 900k and would continue to drop to 250k in the evening hours, that's still better than the 150k average I got in my hometown from 9am till 2am. Seems that STL has some crowding problems as people with Tmo on Howardforums and in their forums are complaining about their speeds in STL failing to get above 2mpbs.

Maybe they hid a tower somewhere in your house without you knowing

lol jk..but 45ms is really really low ms, its closer to the ms you'd expect to get from a wired connection. By average wireless ms usually is like 100ms-200ms...

As for 4g, even if they don't have wimax it has nothing to do with it, Rev B is just a software update on their end..I mean I don't know what to say but those numbers are above the specifications of Rev A...

Do you have another phone that is not capable of Rev B to test?

or maybe your neighbor snuck a micro-cell in that is capable of Rev B into their tower station...no clue lol..but those speeds and pings are beyond normal...

Have you tried to use an app to see where the sprint tower your connecting to is? (distance wise)

I have no clue what to say..but at same time we are talking about sprint reps...they told us many things..its also possible they were just testing it in his area and never bothered to go back..cause as I said its mostly a software upgrade...

The ap tells us how far the tower being used is from us when running the test.
When I ran my tests it told me that the nearest tower was 2o kilometres from my location

The speedtest app tells you the distance between you and the test server, not the location of the tower your connected to.

referring to the title, I used to like windows mobile, but recently i have gotten kind of tired how its slower than decent smart phones currently available, so the only reason I use it now is because my plan doesn't let me upgrade.
I just wish that my text messages would open right away instead of waiting 5 seconds for them all to open...

Are you opening them in the standard messaging client or the manilla messaging client?

how many texts do you have stored? cause lots of texts will cause that too.

they will be losing me as well in the near future . Browsing speeds of 8kB/s are unacceptable .
