Anybody using wireless broadband? Either usb or pcmcia wireless card.
There is not much info around. Do packages allow regular phone use with
broadband?

In th Seattle, WA area EVDO works great - Rev. A is here and typical
downliad is a little over 1m. Upload is running about 600k. Throughput
is
great. Both the USB and PCMCIA and Express slot cards work fine. You can
use phone with broadband but not both at once (if you are talking about
using phone-as-modem). Sprint tolerates VoiP and the data speeds support
it. I know people using the USB on their desktop and moving it to their
laptop then they hit the road. Also I use my Blackberry 8703e as a modem.
It is only Rev. 0 but I connect at around 750k.

Cingular HSDAP here in the San Francisco Bay Area is roughly comparable,
using a Motorola RAZR V3xx handset.

It may, but HSPDA cover is much less US wide then EVDO. ANd EVDO REv. A is
quickly being rolled out. Here in the Seattle market you can consistently
download at 1+ mbps and upload at 700+ kbps. Coverage is very extensive,
much more so then the Cingular/AT&T system. But I know things vary from
market to market.

And this is a Sprint group. :)
