Question [Q] Has anyone noticed improved 3G speeds? Post speed test results

sooooo I have gotten use to the awful 3G speeds that I get most of the time around my area. Some days you have good days but overall they have been in the gutter. I don't know if today is just a good day or if the evdo radio is actually that much better in this phone.



I never got even close to that speed on my 3D, I have ran multiple test to see if it was a fluke but they have all come in great ping times, 1,000kbps+ with about 675 up average. Pretty impressed actually, my 3D in the same area would bounce all over the place 500 average maybe sometimes lower. Anyone else seeing this in there area?

Also 3G actually works great while on the phone! I have been waiting for this feature for YEARS, I read rumors about it but didn't think it would actually work. Wayyyyy better - I heard towers needed to be upgraded for this to work - is it working for you guys as well?

I traded in my ET4G but after testing a zillion times here at home I never got above 850 and that was only upon rare occasions. Most of the time I was between about 350 and 520. I am now pulling 1200 consistently
