All I have to say about my SPRINT service is this:  I was riding on the N train to a meeting in mid-town and my phone rang.  If you have been to New York City and seen our “sub” way system you know it is deep underground and no one gets calls on the train in a tunnel.  In other words,   AWESOME!!

As for my SPRINT EVDO card, Speedtest.Net is telling me I have over 2Mbps on th UP!  What??? I started getting these readings after installing an update that was pushed out – took an hour and a half, but if the speedtest is an indication of the kind of up-grades being made available over “affordable” means, that’s great for streaming!

I know, I need to do more testing and I will.  Admittedly the spattering of APPS that were made available did not live up to the hype this past week.  Alas.

The one thing I need to do immediately is set up VNC or RDP on my device, then we will really kick around some tires in the field.  And I will get to the testing and I will tell the world… I love my Pre!

FCC EXPLAINS RELATIONSHIP OF BLOGBAND TO THE RECORD IN THE NATIONAL BROADBAND PLAN PROCEEDING
GN Docket No. 09-51
To foster dialogue about the National Broadband Plan, the FCC has launched a new blog called
“Blogband” at http://blog.broadband.gov.  Blogband is intended to keep the public up-to-date about
progress on the National Broadband Plan and to allow public feedback, comment, and discussion that will
help the FCC in developing the best possible Plan.  In creating Blogband, the FCC recognizes the need to
reconcile such innovative use of the Internet in communicating with the government with the more
traditional requirement of creating an administrative record, (i) to give interested parties notice of other
parties’ comments, (ii) to allow the Commission to address significant issues and (iii), if necessary, to
provide a basis for judicial review.

* You can make comments and suggestions, yes you!
