Wireless Data
Advice...
I have a phone(metropcs of course) and am quite happy with it, however i want PAM service, and i want a smart phone to fit that as well, basically i have a phone covering my voice and text, now i want a pda/data device, especially for tethering, and with a service provider that would allow unlimited data access... any suggestions? i was looking at cingular or t-mobile, because quite frankly verizon sucks, and so does sprint, also because i travel, and having a gsm phone would benefit me greatly, all i would want is unlimited data, i would be concerned with text or voice? any suggestions?

Of all the wireless carriers here in the US, Sprint Nextel Inc. has the the most POWERFUL data network of any of the carriers. People say you can talk the talk, but can you walk the walk? Sprint Nextel Inc. did one better, they went running and have left the competition in the dust. Look at the statistics and you'll see why.

🤣 I'm looking at one of your coverage area maps right now and noticed that sprint covers nearly 98% of the U.S. on their coverage map! Granted this includes Off Network Analog Roaming and Off Network Digital Roaming which makes up 90% of said coverage. Now combine this with $.03kb in data usage(where you get it) and its easy to see how (queu drums) sprint is The Most POWERFUL Data Network!!! 🤣

WTH are u talking about dude? sprint has the most powerful network? try the most useless... WTH are they doin messin with a tech that has no relevance to their own? fallin apart is what?
If your lookin for data speeds...keep a look out for cingular...if sprint were to compare apples to apples you would see that their broadband network cant even compete with cingulars 3G which is only in its infancy stage..
Their network right now is capped at 1.8 Mbps...as soon as more devices are available they will increase it to 3.6 Mbps.....one phone and a couple pc cards are already capable of these speeds..... the network has the capability of 7.2 Mbps...and sometime in the not to distant future will have UPLOAD SPEEDS of 1.5 Mpbs.....you wont be...

I think cingular offers unlimited data on a PDA device without voice for $44.99. Data speeds would be determined by the device you go with.
...
I think its $59.99 or $79.99 to do the teather as well. Its not something that comes up often(data w/out vice) with the exception of wireless cards.
