available for shipping. This new EVDO Rev A card can be used on the currently EVDO Rev 0 network, but you won't be able to attain faster speeds. Its speed advantage will only come into play when Sprint begins to implement the EVDO Rev A network that boasts a much lower latency and the ability to handle VoIP calls. It is widely expected that the new EVDO Rev A card will be able to offer download speeds that average anywhere between 450kbps and 800kbps as well as uploads that range from 300kbps to 400kbps. The Sprint EVDO Rev A card will cost $99.99 with a two-year contract, while a one-year contract is more expensive at $174.99.
Pros : Faster EVDO connection with Rev A network
Cons : Rev A network not implemented yet
