“In what’s likely yet another [futile attempt](http://cn.engadgetmobile.com/2007/06/29/good-news-verizon-stores-open-today/) to steal some limelight from that [other](http://www.engadgetmobile.com/category/atandt) national carrier today, Verizon has finally enhanced “100-percent” of its EV-DO network to Revision A technology. Of course, some locales have been enjoying the [Rev. A](http://www.engadget.com/search/?q=Rev.%20A) niceties [since February](http://www.engadget.com/2007/02/01/verizon-launches-ev-do-rev-a-network/), but now Verizon users coast-to-coast (those under an EV-DO umbrella, that is) can stop feeling envious and start enjoying the higher speeds. Interestingly enough, this news comes just days after the company lowered its BroadbandAccess [rates](http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/06/26/verizon-offers-standalone-broadbandaccess-for-59-99/) and merely hours after throngs of AT&T users reported their EDGE speeds [skyrocketing](http://www.engadgetmobile.com/2007/06/28/atandt-customers-seeing-sudden-boost-in-edge-speeds/) for no apparent reason. Verizon subscribers in EV-DO areas can now expect average download speeds of nearly 600kbps to 1.4Mbps, while uploads will top out somewhere between 500kbps and 800kbps.”

No phones currently support this. There is a possible software update to some since its just a version of EV-DO but you need to wait a few months.

Only some wireless cards do right now. just basically bragging rights about verizon’s speedy network
