EVDO performance is very sensitive to your location and the quality of
the cell network/tower backhaul you are connecting to.  Transfer rate on
EVDO is actually pretty good.  I know that I personally pull 12-15kb/sec
downloads over it, which 2.5 - 3 times faster than I ever did with
dial-up.  However, it is nearly as latent as a satellite connection, so
web browsing and other interactive activities tend to perform poorly.
