Sprint's rolling out EVDO, but way behind VZW at this point, and who knows when Cingular will get its UMTS network up and running.  <br><br>This makes the Dell laptops so much better than the Sony's in that EVDO blows away Cingular's EDGE network.  <br><br>]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Thought]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:06AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell's new laptops to hop on Verizon EV-DO?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/19/dells-new-laptops-to-hop-on-verizon-ev-do/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/19/dells-new-laptops-to-hop-on-verizon-ev-do/</guid><description><![CDATA[Agree, that Verizon is the way to go.  It will be interesting to see if there is an external antenna option, which is used for booster antennas OR signal amplifiers, which you may need in a weaker signal area.  Also, with the soon shipping Kyocera KR1 Router, it may be more attractive to have a PC Card, as you can easily move your PC card to support your home network, mobile hotspot, or small work group.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[EVDO Guy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:06AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell's new laptops to hop on Verizon EV-DO?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/19/dells-new-laptops-to-hop-on-verizon-ev-do/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/19/dells-new-laptops-to-hop-on-verizon-ev-do/</guid><description><![CDATA[To me it makes more sense to have an EVDO cell phone with bluetooth and have all of your devices use bluetooth's DUN. This way you won't be stuck with 2 bills for multiple laptops, pocketpc's and you can use a buddy's laptop with your phone. If they made something like a SIM chip for EVDO so you could pop it back and forth from device to device that would be cool too.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Bryant]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:06AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell's new laptops to hop on Verizon EV-DO?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/19/dells-new-laptops-to-hop-on-verizon-ev-do/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/19/dells-new-laptops-to-hop-on-verizon-ev-do/</guid><description><![CDATA[The announcement has been made:<br><br>http://news.vzw.com/news/2005/09/pr2005-09-19b.html]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[creaniuim]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:06AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell's new laptops to hop on Verizon EV-DO?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/19/dells-new-laptops-to-hop-on-verizon-ev-do/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/19/dells-new-laptops-to-hop-on-verizon-ev-do/</guid><description><![CDATA[It would make more sense to be able to use bluetooth to connect to the laptop, except that verizon disables bluetooth every chance they get so that it only works with headsets.  so unless you hack your treo.....]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[dutch_love]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:06AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell's new laptops to hop on Verizon EV-DO?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/19/dells-new-laptops-to-hop-on-verizon-ev-do/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/19/dells-new-laptops-to-hop-on-verizon-ev-do/</guid><description><![CDATA[Bluetooth is not fast enough to handle EVDO.  If you use Bluetooth via EVDO, the maximum speed you will get is around 143K, even if you are in a 400K - 700K (or faster), area.   BlueTooth 2.0 should have the bandwidth to handle EVDO.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[EVDO Guy]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 19th 2005 1:06AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Dell's new laptops to hop on Verizon EV-DO?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/19/dells-new-laptops-to-hop-on-verizon-ev-do/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2005/09/19/dells-new-laptops-to-hop-on-verizon-ev-do/</guid><description><![CDATA[#5 - I'm writing this tethered to an e815 over Bluetooth.
