And iDEN is the ONLY push-to-talk network that's actually reliable. Sprint/Verizon's QChat and AT&T's push-to-talk abomination don't come anywhere close to the service iDEN can handle. Only reason there were so many issues over the years with SMS and data were because iDEN wasn't originally created with those purposes in mind, but instead for rapid dispatch and coast-to-coast push-to-talk networking.]]>Mar 5th 2010 3:45PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/
I use iDEN Data while roaming in Mexico because you can't beat FREE. You should look at Canada and NII Countries and you see that there is no charge for iDEN Data Roaming. Who cares if you wait for an email a bit longer. In addition, if you have the International Direct-Connect active you can connect home for free]]>Mar 5th 2010 3:49PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/Well here at Mexico Nextel's iDen network has the biggest ARPU of any carrier and it also has plans to launch a 3g network, not sure if it'll be wimax or evdo. Also we get free data roaming in US, Canada and all NII countries. So i think iDen can still have a good future.]]>Mar 6th 2010 3:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/sorry wimax is 4g. iDen +WiMax would be very interesting]]>Mar 6th 2010 4:42AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/Mar 5th 2010 3:33PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/
Speed is not everything and emails are mostly text. If you want to download videos on the go, iDEN might not be your network of choice in the first place. iDEN networks are reliable and were designed not for data hungry consumers.

I have Sprint and Nextel and I use both quite heavyly for data. My I-930 works very well for a quick look at some sites and to launch Google Voice while my Sprint device is pulling the heavy data load (about 20GB per month)]]>Mar 5th 2010 3:54PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/Mar 5th 2010 3:34PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/Mar 5th 2010 3:36PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/Mar 5th 2010 3:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/
I have been with Sprint for about 14 years (ever since they launched service in the OC/LA market. I have Nextel for ages as well and I would not switch to another carrier. Why would I pay more money for Verizon or AT&T? Sprint gives you lower prices and Verizon Network Coverage (with Roaming). I am in SoCal and Sprint has been fixing a lot in their network and you can't be happier. Nextel still could see some improvement but it works well in Downtown LA in most of the High-rise buildings. Verizon and AT&T have still issues. ]]>Mar 5th 2010 4:02PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/

I wish sprint nextel would release a blackberry on the iden network for radio and possibly cell, and also be on the sprint network for cell and data so we can get 3g speeds. I know its possible to have the 2 radios in once device, they did it for awhile with that motorola buzz phone. used iden for radio, sprint for cell calls.]]>Mar 5th 2010 9:38PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/Mar 6th 2010 11:00AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/http://www.engadget.com/2010/03/05/motorolas-android-powered-iden-device-to-be-called-i1/
