2 megabits in your hand
Verizon Wireless has launched 1xEV-DO networks in D.C. and San Diego according to a
news release by the company. Normal speeds range from 300-500 kilobits per second, but bursts can get as speedy as 2 megabits per second (faster than most DSL, and about the speed of most cable modems).
You can buy a card for your laptop to enable on-the-go access for $149.99 after rebate. Unlimited service will cost $79.99 a month from Verizon Wireless once the service starts on October 1st. For more info on this service,
