  • Sierra AirCard 595 PCMCIA Rev A
  • PC5750 PCMCIA Rev A

Why is Verizon going with MediaFLO? Hopefully, it is to release 3G bandwidth from streaming – which can slow down the whole network.

If anything, they’ve become more honest over the years, as it is certainly not impossible that you can get over 1 Mbps down and 1 is part of 1 – 4. Anyway, if they didn’t move to MediaFLO there would be a lot of awkwardness during the weekly golf game with the Qualcomm reps — just ask the guys at Sprint.

Also, why is Verizon Wireless moving its Video/TV feeds off their CDMA network and offering the MediaFlo Broadcast TV network
