Re: Tuesday, September 5, 2006
Doc,
First off, I'm NO fan of our pals at Verizon (as evidenced by these posts on my blog: http://www.google.com/search?ie=UTF-8&oe=UTF-8&q=verizon&domains=www.iConnectDots.com&sitesearch=www.iConnectDots.com&btnG=+Google+Search+ ).
How can it take you since late July to get EVDO service? Not available in your area?
With a Mac, I ended up getting the typical "we don't support the Mac" runaround but opened up Internet Connect and use my Treo 700p as a bluetooth or USB modem. Works great...though at peak times I'm convinced Verizon throttles back the data service to voice...which pisses me off.
I've actually been relatively pleased with Verizon after using Qwest, Cingular and TMobile over the years (other than my rants off my blog link above).
I'd suggest sitting in an area with strong service, dialing 611 and talking to VZW to get EVDO added.
