Amended from Techdirt Wireless:
Over the past few weeks, the rumor levels have been increasing on both
an expanded EV-DO offering from Verizon Wireless and the initial launch
of Sprint's EV-DO offering. There are plenty of reports "out in the
field" where people have spotted both in action -- and announcements
have been rumored "any day now" for about a month. While it's likely
Sprint will get the big splash when it debuts it's network, it seems
like Verizon Wireless is trying to steal some of the thunder by
dribbling out news of EV-DO expansion every other day or so.
A couple days ago, it was Richmond, Virginia. A few days before that it was San Antonio, Texas. Now it's the Northwest, with both Seattle and Portland launching.
You get the feeling they're just waiting for Sprint to make a move, and
the whole list of newly expanded cities will come pouring out even
faster. |
