Alex, the technology keeps on moving faster than I can keep up. What is HSDPA?
HSDPA is the high speed/broadband service that AT&T offers.

Sprint / Verizon / Alltel use a different technology called EVDO.

If you can find it, HSDPA is similar in speed to EVDO.

Problem is finding it!

HSDPA is only in about 20-30% as many places as EVDO is currently, and growing/expanding at a snail's pace, compared to EVDO.

if you already have EVDO, you're better off.

if someone is considering internet from a cellular carrier, my opinion is EVDO will be available in more places than HSDPA.
