Sorry but I didn't order from booster-Antennea... The sprint store is 2 minutes away and they had them for $100.00 out of pocket with a $50.00 rebate to boot...

SO I did a speedtest at speakeasy from their Chicago server, (I live in Indy)
I got 1053 kps download speed and 125 kps upload speed... Is this good? I know it sure as heck beats the PAM I was using before!!!

I don't know if Indy is a revA area or not? Anything to get faster downloads and uploads? I'm still very new to the whole EVDO experience...Gotta say I'm liking it better than the PAM much, much, much more.

just got mine.. hooked it up and testing using the Seattle Servers on speakeasy, 2200kb download and 680 upload this afternoon. (it's slowed down to 1935 upload and 711 download)

I LOVE this REV A and the new modem.. glad that I didn't wait for an express card..

update speeds 2447 download and 677 upload..

ROFL I cannot wait to get to Cali so I can get in a REV A area....

Still my U720 is faster and better then my S620

U720 Speedtest.net:

My S620 speedtest.net is missing but it was 75kbps down and 5kbps up... same area.... U720 FTW weather REV 0 or REV A

Any guesses on how much normal battery life is reduced. I am trying to decide between the expresscard future version and this version based on battery life. I have a remote laptop application I am concerned about
Thanks Question
