It's far from symmetrical. The ping times aren't any good either.<br>No, I'm not trying to play games via a tethered mobile. Latency is often similar to dial-up, anything under 100ms is really great (that statement is based on 1.8Mbit HSDPA but I doubt it's improved much).<br>That being said.. woohoo! Maybe I can buy an HSDPA handset then upgrade in June or July when a smartphone or better is released that supports 7.2 HSDPA. The speed really is nice!]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[Spencer]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Dec 8th 2006 9:10PM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on 7.2Mbps HSDPA service to hit Cingular next year]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/08/7-2mbps-hsdpa-service-to-hit-cingular-next-year/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2006/12/08/7-2mbps-hsdpa-service-to-hit-cingular-next-year/</guid><description><![CDATA[Since when is Qualcomm an expert in what Cingular is doing?
