The network uses WiMAX technology and a large chunk of dedicated spectrum near 2500 MHz (2.5 GHz), giving Sprint ample room to expand capacity. Coverage of this all-new network is quickly expanding to more cities. Also, new devices - data modems and phones - are coming out at a rapid pace. These include the impressively-spec'd HTC EVO 3D Android smartphone.
