EVDO active as of this morning. Appears to be EVDO over Cell instead of EVDO over PCS. Verizon has no PCS license here yet.

It's been active since at least 7:30 am. It's now 10:30. One other user has reported an active connection as well, in the Natomas area, at least 10 miles from me. See Howard Forums.

I have not run a speed test, but Mobile Web surfing is singificantly faster, and for the first time the EV icon stays lit throughout communication. I've used EVDO in San Diego before and my web speed is comperable to that.

Just following up on my post yesterday... EVDO continues to be active in Sacramento and appears to be live throughout the city and surrounding communities. Looks like we're permanently up and running! (I was worried at first that this was just a system test.) Very Happy
