Great article....I think this is the first time I have seen an end-user throughput estimate. It probably needs to be taken with a grain of salt since it is written by the CTO of Airvana....but who would be in a better position to know this information? A well-engineered 1xEV-DO network delivers average download data rates between 600 to 1200 kbps during off-peak hours, and between 150 to 300 kbps during peak hours. Instantaneous data rates are as high as 2.4 Mbps. These data rates are achieved using only 1.25 megahertz of spectrum, one-fourth of what is required for wideband CDMA. Those are some pretty good numbers.... Slacker
