Very nice. I'm Los Angeles and where I live I get about 15k rather consistently. I'm very happy with the speeds my n4 pulls.

I'm in Minneapolis, which is listed as HSPA +42, but when I check my phone status, I only ever see HSPA +15, even at full reception. Is my phone configured wrong or something? o_O

Run a speed test and see what you get. Mine often says 3G but switches to H+ as soon as I start using data. I'm getting between 14-22 megs down in Minneapolis.
 
I couldn't do any speed tests last night because data refused to work for some reason, but this morning everything seems good (this after searching for data settings threads, finally finding one, and then noticing my phone had cell data :p ). Only run a handful, but in my office with our building's signal-eating architecture I'm still pulling 9 down and 1 up. That's better than Sprint's WiMax so call me happy right now. :)
 
I have received speeds anywhere from 10Mbs-22Mbs from my house. Next place to test is my workplace. I work 12 hour shifts so great speeds are a must. Will post screenshots when I can.
 
Side by side with my Wi-Fi. Is actually normally a lot closer.

But still not too shabby.

I was on T-Mobile with a G2 until April 2011, my office always had 6-8 down. I switched to Virgin Mobile until last week, where my office didn't have WiMAX. Fastest I ever saw on that was 14 down. I get about 6-10 in more urban areas, which, even at 4-5 GB/month, is more than fast enough for me. My office must be very close to a cell tower, because all my tests here are a minimum of 20 down.
 
I'm in Tampa, Palm Harbor on tmobiles prepay deal and getting 8mbs to 13mbs up and 2mbs to 4mbs up. I'm leaving ATT.

Speed outside 34471 area code = 14mb/sec down 2mb/sec up. In house 5mb/sec down, 400kb/sec up
 
Another random Verizon LTE speed test. This is getting more common these days - HSPA+ does feel quite real-world competitive when they are both loaded. Not the faster upload than download - likely spectrum constrained.

I've had my N4 for about a week now on T-Mobile and I keep getting 3G vs H in my house. Based on speed tests I'm sure I'm on hspa but not sure why it keeps toggling between the two.

I got better download speeds comparing tmo and vzw. Just canceled my vzw and ported my number last night. Tampa/Brandon, FL
