Holy Canoli!
That's fast. That's burn-through-your-battery-in-ten-seconds fast. I want.

I mean that to say it would be pointless on a phone. On a USB webstick, it would rock.

I usually find that multiplying by .5 seems to be a good practice to find somewhat accurate real world speeds. That aside, even if we use your figures 36mbps is faster than you would need on a computer let alone a phone.
As a T-Mobile employee I should expand on this and let you guys know that these speeds are years away. The current plan is to double HSPA+ speeds every year.

We all know what is inside a Canoli right?
Take everything for face value and might as well be the same filling between your ears as in the Canoli. 😉

Haha I didn't say that I believe that we will ever reach those speeds. Only that if we do then it would be more than fast enough. As far as the doubling speed every year, I just wanted to point out that, that is the current plan because this article made it sound as if the 650mbps speeds were coming in 2013.
