Please log in for more thread options I'm trying to find out if there is/are news group(s) related to the 3D or Edge Broadband wireless service, such as that offered by AT&T, Verizon, and Sprint. I'd like to get a current evaluation of their various services. Googling for comparisons only brings up articles that are a year or more older. Certainly in this technology, things are changing more rapidly than that. Thanks for your help and patience. -- Thieves get rich and saints get shot, and God don't answer prayers a lot. | |||||||||||||

I already read the Sprint group, as I have their cellular service. LSJ -- Thieves get rich and saints get shot, and God don't answer prayers a lot. | |||||||||||||

Now if you are talking about WiMax or other services like Muni WiFi, those would usually be discussed again in some of the tech websites. I've found the DSLREPORTS.COM website to be helpful with news & tidbits. | |||||||||||||

Yup, think I saw one or two posts on the broadband service on the Sprint website, but nothing terribly informative. Also, found some good stuff on dslreports regarding the so-called "unlimited" Verizon service--seems they have a 5 GB cap/month. One of the reasons I asked is that AT&T has a deal going on now such that if you order one of their USB broadband cards (NOT PCMCIA), you get it free. The catch is that you have to go for a 2-year contract. I'd hate to get stuck on that only to find out the service is not as good as Sprint's for instance. (Verizon is out of the picture now, for obvious reasons!) AT&T price is $59.99/month for Unlimited; and, I haven't read anywhere (so far) that they've set a cap as has Verizon. >
