EVDO is the CDMA technology's version of 3G. Mainly available in the US and Canada. Verizon and Sprint BBs are EVDO Rev 0 capable. Don't think they are Rev A yet, but I could be wrong on that. The Canadian CDMA carrier TELUS also supports EVDO.

In the GSM world, EDGE averages 50-125 kbps with a max of 384 kbps. 3G gives you 400-800 kbps on average with a max of about 3.6 mbps and a theoretical max of 14.6 mbps - but I doubt if we will see that soon. No US BBs are 3G capable. he only one I know of is the 8707series and that is 3G in Europe only.

But the same conditions apply in my previous post as to factors affecting the speed.
