Re: 3g speed results by city

Sweet I'm switching to ATT because they have the best... ummmmm upload speeds... WHAT!!! who cares about upload speeds on a mobile device, we want to just DOWNLOAD DOWNLOAD DOWNLOAD!!!!

I'll switch to Verizon and move to New Orleans... well, ugh.... maybe just switch to Verizon, something about living below sea level and next to the sea just doesn't sit right with me...

Re: 3g speed results by city

This is from the test that PCWORLD did a few months ago.
Here's the detailed article from last month on the results:
http://www.pcworld.com/article/16739...ife_of_3g.html

They basically say Sprint literally is the most dependable network.
Verizon seems to have the perfect mix of speed and dependability.
ATT still disappoints me for how much they're charging.

Reliability ratings:
Sprint - 90.8%
Verizon - 89.8%
ATT - 68%.<---disgraceful

Re: 3g speed results by city

Wonder if they didnt use Vegas because we have clear(4G/WiMax) here.

Also, i knew Sprint on the west coast has the better service, been giving them money for about 10 years now.
