unwired data network 01/08/2004 07:46 PM
Verizon is announcing plans to spend $1B US in the next two years to develop a wireless broadband network that will offer 300-- 500K speeds at $79.99 a month, starting this summer.

The network, which will use third-generation or "3G" technology provided by Evolution-Data Optimized (EV-DO), will be fast enough to allow consumers to download video and music as well as send video messages. The high-speed network, called BroadbandAccess, will be available to businesses and individual customers beginning in the summer of 2004. Since 2003, Verizon has operated wireless broadband networks in Washington, D.C., in a partnership with Lucent Technologies, and in San Diego with Nortel Networks.

Rumor Mill: EvDO in NYC?

Rumor Mill: EvDO in NYC? 08/27/2004 01:30 PM
Rumors are flying that Verizon is in the midst of building out EvDO in New York City: NYC will serve as a crucial example of how the higher-speed mobile data networks compete next to Wi-Fi. Both networks have upsides in the city. Wi-Fi is higher speed, lower cost, and available in many places. EvDO will be lower speed, higher cost, but available in more places (although cellular coverage is notoriously bad in the city). At the end of the day, there's a niche for both networks and if the price is right, enough customers for both....

Real-Time Car Tracking with EVDO

Real-Time Car Tracking with EVDO 03/23/2005 05:36 PM

This is why EVDO cellular internet is cool: the guys from EVDOInfo.com rigged together a little application using off the shelf parts to display on a web page their car, its exact location and velocity, as well as the current view out their window. It's tricks like these that will make EVDO (and UMTS, if Cingular ever gets it deployed) a standard feature for "carputers" before long.

And to think, just a few short years ago these technologies were reserved for child molesters and enemies of the state.

MSNBC Writer Praises EVDO

MSNBC Writer Praises EVDO 12/19/2004 03:18 PM
Gary Krakow loves EVDO: Verizon Wireless's 1xEv-DO cellular data service isn't available everywhere yet, but Krakow loves even the current level of ubiquity and speed. A number of my colleagues think that even a few hundred kilobits per second of download will be adequate for most users, rendering Wi-Fi connected to a T1 line or even faster ADSL service--like 6 Mbps down and 768 Kbps--a bit of overkill. I tend to think these colleagues don't fully appreciate how many business travelers there are in the U.S.--40 million of them by one count, 30 million of which carry laptops--and how many of those travelers have high-bandwidth applications that they struggle to use. Customer-relation management (CRM) software, Java or ActiveX based internal applications, or even simple file exchange requires a fair amount of bandwidth to offer the "it's like I'm in the office" experience. Even uploading a 10 MB PowerPoint presentation is torture at the 50 to 100 Kbps per speed that's the maximum that EVDO can offer right now. Downloads might break 2 Mbps at peak performance, more likely averaging a very respectable few hundred Kbps, but uploads aren't emphasized in the current generation of technology. Tell that to the folks trying to send high-resolution pictures and movies from fancy new camera phones, too! Krakow doesn't overstate the advantages of EVDO, however. He's pretty realistic. And for general email and Web browsing, EVDO is more than adequate. Remember that the 1x in 1xEv-DO stands for 1.25 MHz of spectrum. A 3x flavor of CDMA2000 will use 3.75 MHz and be able to offer much more speed in both directions. One flavor in the lab would bring peak upload to 1 Mbps, for instance....

4400 Square Miles of EVDO

4400 Square Miles of EVDO 12/19/2004 03:18 PM
Verizon Wireless says they've blanketed Los Angeles and environs: Its BroadbandAccess service, its name for the package of 1xEv-DO they've rolled out (or just plain EVDO if you want to be simpler about it) fills Los Angeles County, parts of Riverside County and San Bernadino County, and most of San Diego and Orange County. Overall, about 4400 square miles of coverage across populated SoCal. This announcement is interesting because it was never entirely clear how much of a metropolitan area that Verizon intended to install EVDO throughout--100 percent? 95 percent? The city but not the suburbs? Their work here is a clear signal that they're talking metro deployment, not urban deployment....

Verizon's Edge, I Mean, EvDO on the
Competition

Verizon's Edge, I Mean, EvDO on the
Competition 10/28/2003 11:09 PM
Cell carriers are pretty far behind on 3G, but Verizon's early deployment may give it an edge -- I mean, a competitive advantage: While GSM operators struggle with GPRS (10 to 50 Kbps) and are rapidly trying to get EDGE fully deployed (100 Kbps), Sprint is staying the course with 1xRTT (50 to 70 Kbps), and T-Mobile and Nextel don't seem to be in the running for anything more interesting. Verizon Wireless's early 3G deployment (1xEvDO, 300 to 500 Kbps) in San Diego and Washington, D.C., may pay off, Matt Maier of Business 2.0 notes, because they simply have this service now at a fixed rate. The advent of cell phone number portability about to be engaged ties in with this: Verizon is the only cell company to back it. They want people to switch over, sign up for data, and then lock them in with long-term contracts and the only real 3G that will have any scope in 2004. Great plan! (All speeds more or less real world, not the advertised ones.)...

Judge Joseph C. Fratto Jr. of the Third Judicial District Court in Salt Lake City issued an injunction Tuesday that temporarily blocked the Utah law, known as the Spyware Control Act, which was signed into law by Utah Governor Olene Walker on March 23, after WhenU.com Inc. applied for a temporary restraining order, claiming the law would cause "irreparable harm" to its business.
