The major factor that determines your speed is coverage. Most people report more consistent, but lower results from verizon. ATT's tech is more localized, but it is a lot quicker too. So, which will give better results is really determined on a case by case basis. Good thing there is atleast some competition.
-You used 3 gigs. Its unlimited for phones, 5gb for laptop connect devices.
-7.2 mbps is a theoretical maximum. With the current theoretical limit of 3.6, you can realistically expect 700kbps-1.7mbps, so my guess is that it will only be roughly 1.5-2 times that.
-It is against the terms of service (that you, believe it or not, agreed to) to use 3g for streaming media, large file downloads, etc (high bandwidth stuff basically)
-Your wireless laptop may not be the best choice for running a world of warcraft server anyway.
Wow- Every day we are making leaps and bounds in the fields of political oppression! It truly is a bright*I MEAN GRAY* future.

Hello, I'm a windows power user who has used linux and, frankly, I don't understand what the real world benefits are.
Sure- its free, but I dont care about that. I'll gladly pay for a system if it is the best.
Sure- its interface is very customizable (along with the rest of the system), but how does that help me I'm too busy configuring the thing to be able to use it?
I've no doubt that linux is a better model for an operating system, and that at one point it will be ready for the desktop- but in my opinion it isn't there yet, so for now I don't see why i should HAVE to find alternatives to all of my programs.
Well, this article is pointed at power users. And speaking as a power user who mostly uses windows- The main thing that prevents me from switching is that I don't have any reason to! Why should I find alternatives to the programs I use when the programs I use are the best out there. Honestly- I like the gnome interface (not so hot on K), and its cool how customizable it is- but if it does not do anything useful for me- I don't care!
See the difference is that people who use linux are OS buffs. Most people really dont care about OS- so long as it runs all the apps we need- and you cannot argue with the fact that -As it stands- Windows has by far the widest application compatibility hands down.
Honestly, lets all give up making unauthorized copies of books. I mean, when you do that, its almost like distributing them in a fully public medium, for free- readers don't have to pay a DIME.
Well, that, sir, is the worst form of terrorism. Certainly neither I nor our great US&A government could support an endeavor of such despicable intent.
Besides, you cant beat the independent authors industry- they're too powerful.
Why don't they use their data sorting skills to organize all the ideas in a wiki or some such and have them meta moderated to find out what the most popular is?

I've consolted my ministry of propaganda- and they disagree.
And more and more things become patentable- we may well have a ministry of silly walks.
The ipod touch?
Here is some bad news in that regard:
They've spotted Gordon Freeman running around the LHC.

They are. They're deploying more 850 mhz towers, which have higher terrain penetration.

If you re-do the math, it comes out to http://www.google.com/search?hl=en&safe=active&q=5GB+/+1.4+Mbps&btnG=Search&aq=f&oq=&aqi=
8 hours of absolute maximum useage really is not that bad.
You could always tether over wap though if you really really need unlimited 3g though.
5gb a month actually. Shared local OC3. To most in cities anyway.

This is one of many reasons I take my soda in the form of glass bottles. Vivà IBC!
Well, either that or the enriched uranium canisters that mountain dew comes in.
You really need to get out of mom's basement a bit more often.
Thanks for the link, looks good.
So you DO know how to reply.

I chose emf detection. That would be handy.

Anyone want to start a pool on how long it will take for the military to want to tip missiles with it?
But what if the track could bend?
Isn't this what web UIs are for?
I think ittl be a few years before people realize that bittorrent is perfectly legal, and a great distribution method.
My bad, someone else already mentioned this sort of thing. Ignore my post.

So being a subscriber allows you access to a time machine? Thats pretty cool.
I've never had a problem posting to them... or seeing them... and I'm not a subscriber.
Yes but i've never once seen a red article with comments.
