Hello all, I am considering EVDO for my macbook pro and have a question. From my research here and other places it appears that in the past in an area that is well covered by both sprint and Verizon that sprint is the preferred network, is this still the case? Thank you for any help.

It really depends on where you plan on using the service the most, and who covers those areas. If both carriers have similar coverage in those areas, then yes I'd say go with Sprint. Contact 3Gstore & they will be able to check coverage areas for you & assist with picking the right aircard for a MacBook Pro, as they are the Mac EVDO Experts Wink

While they are both equal - I would like to point out that Verizon Wireless has better coverage than sprint in rural areas. Sprint mainly focuses on larger populated areas Verizon Wireless focused more on the rural areas and the larger population. Like Torrey said call the 3gstore and give them your address and they can check for you.
