I just talked to a friend that is still in Rolla and his iPhone is connecting to 3G now.

Just to let everyone know

Sweet, I hated being on EDGE every time I went down there.

Can someone with an HSDPA phone (iPhone 3GS, the new AT&T-compatible Nexus One, maybe the most recent Windows Mobile phone) do a speed test? I'm curious to see if they deployed 7.2 HSDPA.

Well, I hope they also updated their tower's capacity. During the day, I have really spotty connectivity on EDGE during peak hours (i.e. ~~ 10am-4pm).

I live a mile out past JC penny's/Kmart (south rolla) and I get it in my house, so it's pretty wide coverage

Anyone done a speedtest? This could be the deciding factor on which carrier I choose when I switch this summer.

A quick speed test from Collegiate Station shows 1.2 down and .3 up. Not sure where the tower is, so I may be on the far end of the service range.

I'm workin for att now and I just checked the rolla service map. There are a total of 5 towers around rolla, each one had a planned umts (3g) activation date of 3/31. I guess they were turned on and my sytems just haven't been updated yet.

Any way you could check and tell me when/if AT&T ever plans on upgrading to 3g at the lake of the ozarks? Specifically rocky mount, mo (65072)

Finally. Maybe now I'll be able to get a call out on Friday nights with my EDGE phone.

My job title is hardly glamorous. I'm workng in customer care, so I get to deal with people who bitch about how they don't get service, or their bill is too high, or they want to put a password on their account so their soon to be ex wife can't make any changes to the account.

Ya, that last one happens. Alot.

at the northeast corner of town (Northbrook Apartments, for those of you off campus ftw) I got exactly 1Mbit down and about 338kbit up with a 370msec ping.

When I have wifi on, i get 1.3Mbit down, and 488kbit up, with a 178 msec ping, which is exactly where it should be through Fidelity.

Who knew Speedtest.net made an app for the iPhone? Awesome.
