Verizon's BroadbandAccess and Mac OS X
Authored by: aclarke on Nov 02, '04 02:22:10PM

I'm glad to hear that this service is working out for you. I pay $30/month for T-Mobile's service and it's very slow. Are you sure though that all of your information is precisely correct? I was under the impression that the faster speeds were only rolled out in Washington, DC and San Diego. As such, you don't get dropped out of broadband access down to 1xRTT when you leave your calling area, but when you leave a broadbandaccess area.

For instance, if you lived in Kansas, you would get 1xRTT in your local area, and would get broadbandaccess speeds if you travelled to DC or San Diego. Right?
