Is this fast 3G speed?

...just wait for the speed we will have when the iPhone comes from Verizon
Of course it will be super fast because Verizon will cripple the feature set.
It may be 2010...and most likely 2012!
2012 would be less than 3 years, and at that time you can expect Verizon to still be the leader in communications, like they are now!
that is pure speculation
I am not beating up your phone, but Verizon could easily perform better...they have a better 3G network! That is the gist to my simple post I mentioned yesterday.AT&T is still working on solidifying their 3G network, and Verizon as of right now, would definitely have better 3G service if they were suitable for an iPhone 3G or 3Gs
A lot of it depends on location, but on the whole Verizon outperforms AT&T. Verizon has a more solidified 3G network than AT&T... If you can prove that not to be true, then logistically you proved me wrong.

No they would not, since Verizon has deployed 3G is almost every city AT&T has and has the same network quality. Their network is just like AT&T's, albeit its more clear and responsive since it doesn't have the iPhone's traffic running thru it. 3G networks in the US can't handle the iPhone's traffic, not in their current stages. If the 3G networks in the US would have been as developed and readily available as the 2G networks they succeeded, then a different story it would have been.
Please understand. Any network (even European ones) with the iPhone on them are taking a beating. This may not be true on countries with many carriers since the load is spread out as opposed to one carrier.
There is a ton of phones on Verizon that use 3G. ...and there is a ton of blackberry's for one. Even though most of what you said I agree with. Verizon could handle the load better with the iPhone using 3G coming from their network, because they have a more solidified 3G network.
I'm speculating, but I wouldn't be surprised if that is what Verizon reps are telling Apple reps in their collaboration talks right now!
Wow I never knew 3g was so slow in the US. I get a little over 3mbps on Rogers 7.2mbps 3g network.
That's horrible for 7.2 mbps...i get 2.2 and we have 3.6 mpbs lmao......imagine when atlanta upgrades to 7.2...ill have 5.0 mbps+ blazing speeds.
Good for you than, I'm happy for you. You didn't have to act like a complete d**chebag about it though.
Your the one saying "oh the united states sucks in speeds"...Don't talk....your being a complete hypocrit right now...
and i said your speeds are horrible adn that makes me the D - bag and not you right?
This is what I typically get in the Boston area. I am in Waltham at the moment at work, which is basically a giant metal cage--I'm amazed it was 5-bars for this test, usually it's 2-3, but I still get about the same speeds.
...this is faster then I see with my Sierra 595 data card on Sprint -- that tops out at about 1.0-1.3Mb/s everywhere I have used it.
Wi-Fi on the iPhone at home is very fast thanks to 25/20 FIOS

Um..i didnt know and im not going to search and bring up old topics..this topic was more f the question if i had relatively high speeds.
