Casper Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 Anybody use the Verizon wireless broadband thing yet? I'm thinking about getting, but I haven't decided yet. It maxes out at 2mb. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
morabu Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 kinda cool, but i think i'll wait a little while myself! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 I've used it, didn't see any difference between my RR acount at home or Verizon on the road. It is pretty cool. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
excell Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 I love it, great on road trips when you aren't driving. It's not *that* fast though, typically see about 500kbps and it can get flaky if you've been using it for a while. You have to cut it off and connect again about 15 mins later and then it won't do it again for another couple hours. Pretty reliable too, used it all the way from Toledo to Grand Rapids, MI earlier this year and it only dropped ~3 times. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akula Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 I like the price but I am not digging the 2 year contract. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Lustalbert Posted October 6, 2005 Report Share Posted October 6, 2005 Waiting on some competition to help lower the price or contract portion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

verse Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 i love it, and sell it. call me for prices man. cr hookup, in effect. Do you sell phones? I have VZW, but I have a shitty phone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Akula Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Orion, I thought you did TMO? If you do Verizon we may need to chat a bit. I need a new phone, probably going to need that wireless internet stuff (can I demo it?) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpaceGhost Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 Orion, My contract is up in January, What cool phones does Verizon have comming out, I got a SCH-A610 when I joined almost 2 years ago works like a champ. Any cool features for verizon phones like the I-pod phone that cingular has? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Boosted GS430 Posted October 7, 2005 Report Share Posted October 7, 2005 I have used it. The price is too high for the speed - not to mention a contract. It wont be too long before 3G goes mainstream ... and for cheaper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Orion Posted October 8, 2005 Report Share Posted October 8, 2005 to all that are asking, yes, i got traded to verizon for a first round pick and a perrenial all-star. i sell everything they offer, and i manage the store at stoneridge plaza. feel free to give me a call or pm me here for details on the cr members hookup deal. 3g will be badass. ev-do revision 1 will be here sooner, most likely, and the price of verizon broadband has halved in the last month and a half. wires are going the way of the dinosaur, no matter where you come down in the network argument.
