Isn't EZweb also an always on packet switched 64 kbps solution?

"I think that the always-on feature may be more important than the improvements in speed."

I'd say absolutely more important than speed. The Internet "alive in your pocket" or your wrist or whatever is psychologically compelling. I had hoped EZ Web was the counter point to this but someone said 1xrtt is the CDMA ticket to this world. Hopefully 1xrtt will be rolling out in the USA before i-mode does or game over.
