Does anybody know when Verizon plans to add EV-DO coverage to the Charlotte area? Your input is greatly appreciated.

Thanks! Question

Charlotte may be one of the battleground cities between Verizon and Sprint.

Verizon currently has NationalAccess there (1xRTT).

Sprint has announced that they will announce EVDO there. Nothing for sure yet, but probably by 1st quarter 2006.

Verizon has really been rolling out new and expanded cities over the last few weeks. I know there are many cities that have it, that haven't been announced yet. Verizon will be cranking out new cities throughout the rest of the year. Many people report coverage 4-6 weeks before Verizon officially announces it, so keep looking here in the forums to see if there are any reports.
