Let's not forget who actually had real services to go along with EV-DO technology--sure wasn't Verizon. 🙂

I would consider the EVDO aircard I started using 9 months ago a real service.

Real Service? LOL - let me tell you a thing or two about real service. I have a Verizon Customer, I have 5 Phone lines plus an Aircard for my business. I live in the Seattle area and Seattle is what I would call a pretty big city. I live in a highrise building, and I would lose service on my cell phone once i would get to the 2nd level of my parking garage with Verizon Wireless, but then it would switch over to extended network (sprint) once It did that. I was thinking of getting a line with Sprint for that reason, I talk on the phone A LOT. So i tried Sprint Service out to see what it was like... well it still worked in my parking garage which was nice. But I would would drop a call on I-5 near 520, hrmmm not once but twice!

Stop arguing idiots...
Every carrier is going to be better in certain areas and you cannot argue that. So STAY on topic.

Come out to where I live and you wouldn't be so happy with VZW. The data network here is crap and the coverage is worse. 😛

lmao. I got the joke turtle....

anyway what I think was meant earlier was that Sprint offered music downloads and verizon didn't until now. Sprint offered "services" ...as in things to do with EVDO besides just basic web stuff. Verizon got EVDO first, Sprint came second but offered stuff to do with EVDO. hope that helps. now quit arguing kiddos.

Wait... What "stuff" did they offer? The pixelated underwater slide show they call SprintTV???

Sprint launched a lame duck music program with what... 100,000 songs for 2.50 each? How well has that done for them?

Anyway, VCast music won't work with the Treo 700 so it doesn't matter anyway..
