Right on. I'm still on the Evo 4G. I was impressed how strong wimax was around Owings Mills. Sucks ass most places I've been and just destroys my dinky stock battery. Good thing for swappable batteries.

P. S. You a Saints fan?

Ahh figured so. My contract is up in 8 days and I will be leaving sprint. Just lost faith in them and the unlimited data is just not enough to keep me. And no Im a GIANTS fan. Dont let the name fool ya. Lol. Go BLUE!

What's really sad is the fact that I've been with Sprint since 99 and service just keeps getting worse. I too have lost faith in Sprint especially since Phoenix is very low on the priority of lte and network upgrades. Within the next month or two I will probably be switching to an unlocked phone possibly the nexus 4 on a pre-paid sim. If I'm not happy with that then I can just sell the unlocked phone and move on.

My exact plan as well. Been with Sprint since like '04 and I feel it's time to explore other options. I feel like Sprint is going to lose a lot of customers after this N4 rollout.

Oh yes.. by far the worst numbers i've ever seen are here in Texas. In Plano at work I can't get anything faster than 0.4KB/s DWN 1.9KB/s UP

In MB terms. 0.00 DOWN and 0.01 UP

If you think those speeds are bad.......
FMl. This is what I have been dealing with for a couple of months in the suburbs of DC on the Maryland side. Cant even finish upload test

I have been having the exact same problem. Although your speeds are much slower than the ping and dl speeds of what I get.

I just did a speedtest on 3g and got 2mbps down that's the fastest I've ever got with sprint ( I'd post a screenshot but my phone doesn't have that feature lol)
