"Good Card but its sprint" on by daplacidone
Pros: Broadband almost anywhere in Sac Metro
Cons: Software drops quality of images
Summary: This a great card have clocked myself at 1.5 several times. Software that comes with it gives you downgraded photos but there is a fix simply download updated sprint connection manager and click high quality photos in the options menu. Sprint tech are not that knowledgable so tech support is bad.

"Excellent but..." on by gchenarides
Pros: Strong signal reception and antennae helps. Very fast when in the proper signal area.
Cons: Was not told it can't be used with PPC.
Summary: I had a Merlin before this and used it whenever I did not have my laptop with me, but instead used my Ipaq and the Merlin to check e-mail. After I installed the 580 software I couldn't find the PPC instructions and called Sprint for help. It was then I was told that it is not available.If it did support it I would rate it a 10!

"Broadband citywide. No more limited WiFi hot spots" on by kingmanbob
Pros: 20 times faster than my old GPRS modem. Backwards compatible with 1xRTT
Cons: Needs external antenna jack. Bad reception in vehicle slows speed.
Summary:
Updated
Even though EDGE is much more wide spread, EV-DO is much faster. It will spread quickly since it's very easy to implement.
