Dear VZW, Less press releases, more smartphone releases please. Give me my i760 or VX6800 already.]]>Jun 29th 2007 2:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/
"For example, BroadbandAccess customers with
Rev. A- compatible devices can now expect average download speeds of 600 kilobits per second (kbps) to 1.4 megabits per second."

Notice the REV A COMPATIBLE DEVICES part!

Current EV-DO customers will not experience any boosts in speed until they buy a phone equipped with Qualcomm's newer RevA chip or an EV-DO RevA data card.

Right now the list of compatible devices is very short, I believe limited to a few HTC smartphones/PDAs that already had RevA in them.

You might have a problem finding new EV-DO RevA phones, however.

The US International Trade Commission has denied Qualcomm's appeal against a ban that could stop millions of the company's phones from entering the US market.

The ban affects versions of handsets using Qualcomm's 3G chipsets. Products that made it into the colonies before June 7 however, remain legal eagle.]]>Jun 29th 2007 1:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/Jun 29th 2007 1:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/Jun 29th 2007 1:47PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/Jun 29th 2007 2:03PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/Jun 29th 2007 2:10PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/Jun 29th 2007 2:26PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/Jun 29th 2007 2:30PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/]]>Jun 29th 2007 2:58PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/

I love all in one devices...but there comes a point where it is a little rediculous. Cell phones already do too much (music, games, camera, web...telephone). A standalone or in-dash GPS unit is of far greater value to me for real use.

Sure, if you needed to use GPS just randomly or while walking/staying in a big city to find lunch, I can understand. But I cannot fathom how anyone would want to use a cell phone to direct themselves while driving.

Again..anything to keep money in my pocket and out of Verizon's.

Eric..I'm sure its been suggested, but have you looked into BitPim?

Is there a list of EVDO R.A devices out there?]]>Jun 30th 2007 12:43PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/http://www.engadget.com/2007/06/29/verizons-entire-ev-do-network-leaps-to-rev-a/Jul 2nd 2007 9:27AM
