There is an asterisk next to where the 33Kbps figure first appears in figure three, where they explain they took the published 600Kbps figure and applied a devisor based on what they guess the number of users per cell will be. They don't apply such a devisor to the numbers in any other column. They don't try to guess the number of users per cell sector for 1XRTT, EDGE, or Metricom and then divide the published average download throughput by it. If HDR were really slower than 1XRTT, why after field testing it, is KDDI planning on deploying it after deploying 1XRTT? Why go backwards? No. It is not a typo. The HDR numbers did not support the thesis of the paper, which is Metricom is the best. So they manipulated the data to get the desired result. They were so transparent about it, that it destroys the effectiveness of the paper for those who bother to read footnotes.
