I have an aircard with ALLTEL.. For a while I was impressed with it
but lately and we do have EVDO out here...
Anyways.. I get bursts of 1.2 MB down but it never stays there.. if
you remain on the EVDO network you get normally 300-500kbps down..
but dammit, mine keeps switching over 1x, and the best you get there is ~150..
