Neeko, they have Rev. A available now. It's in a number of major metro areas. If you want to use it now, get a Rev. A card for your PC, or get a Mogul and wait for the update to come for it (last I heard, it should be coming around Q3, so you probably won't have to wait very long). They're expanding their coverage, but they can't do it instantly.
In case you didn't notice, Sprint is not in a great position as Telco's go. They have to fire on all cylinders to keep up with AT&T and VZW, and this is how they do it. If they "slow down" as you suggest, they get left in the dust. This "Sprint Ahead" thing is their way to say to potential customers, "if you want speed on your network, you want Sprint." And instead of that being just empty marketing promises, they're actually backing it up with goals and deals such as this one.
Anyway, this is more great news for Sprint. I really like what they're doing with themselves of late.
