Are these good speeds..?

I used the speed test.net app and got these results.. I have an H as you can see instead of 3G..i know that's for hsupa..
Is that at&t's 4G?
If so are these speeds in the 4G class?

Not even close, here are my speeds are they're pretty good for a 3g hspa network. 4g in theory should be much faster.

how did u get your speeds so high??
Is that WIFI your on??
Does Anyone know if huspa takes MORE, LESS, or EQUAL amount of data as 3G??

It takes equal amounts of data, H just does it faster. And speeds depends on your modem, and the service where you live.

The H stands for HSDPA, not hsupa in the status bar. It is how the rest of the world besides here does it. You do have hsupa, otherwise it would cap uploads at ~384k.

If I'm correct, it's showing the cell tower icons in the picture next to the recorded speeds, so he is receiving those speeds on HSDPA/HSUPA. Great download speeds, I average between 3-4mb/s. How you got such a high upload speed is beyond me haha, mine spikes up to 1.8, but never recorded higher than 1.4 upload. My 21mb/s Comcast Wireless get's me maxing around 3mb/s upload lol!

a little faster than 3g, i heard. at&t is rolling out HSPA + and call it 4g but the real 4g is coming later this year with LTE

LTE is not 4G.
4G is any technology that supports 100M connections.
LTE HSPA+ WIMAX are still in the 3G umbrella.

Free Nexus 7 with Google Fiber!!!

Google Fiber
If you get internet plus TV for $120 per month, you get a free N7 for the remote. With a 2 year contract.
Only catch seems to be moving to Kansas City.
And according to this article, the general public got the N7 a week after the I/O. Someone didn't really check his facts.
At any rate, I hope google fiber works out in KC.

I'm in KC.. and I sure wish the coverage maps were looking a bit better. Or I hope they plan to expand. I currently know no one that lives in the covered area.
Imagine being a mile or two from where the cutoff is currently. If I never get it because of that 2 miles. ugh
I will move but I won't be happy about it. lol
Essentially the plan is TV and Internet, for 120 a month. If you sign a 2 year agreement they waive the 300 install fee.
Your remote control is a Nexus 7 tablet. You can watch on 8 different tv's. 500hour dvr, and 1tb cloud storage.
This is going to put Comcast and Time Warner along with all the others when it goes to other cities out of business. I'm all for it.

Bring it on down to Dallas, someplace that's actually a tech town (or used to be)! -Ara

The other thing that I think is cool about this is, think of all those households that are iPad and iphone only. Simply because they don't know any better. They're all going to have an android tablet now. The more they use it, surely the more they'll like it.
This could be huge as far as the android vs. ios battle goes.

Google Fiber will never come to Canada. If Google tries Rogers, Bell, Telus, Shaw would go running to the CRTC and block it. Just look how much trouble Wind had when it opened up in Canada, I know its a different industry but its pretty much governed the same way. :crying:

Call me crazy, but I would take the 7 year free internet (for the one-time $300 installation fee). Save $5580 over 7 years, buy Nexus 7 on your own.
Or maybe the 1Gbps would be too tempting, idk.

So I pre-ordered the iPhone 5 64GB Black Slate - MADDD EXCITED - Anyone else did?

I pre-ordered the iPhone 5 64GB in black and it says how it will ship after 2 - 3 weeks since they are already sold out.
It cost me $899 + 13% tax ($116.87) = $1,015.87 (Atleast they offered free shipping!)
Now, after paying that much, I better hope this phone is real good. I am already on 4S 64GB but you can say that I am an iSheep!
The fast graphics chip, bigger screen and LTE really got me going. My LTE data plan can finally be put to real use. What you all think?
EDIT: Oh I can also sell off the 4S 64GB Black + several accessories (3 high quality juice packs, otterbox etc) for a good $550 - $600 hopefully. It is locked to BELL. So I am only paying $400 or so out of my pocket.

I think something got lost in translation on that. A 300 year plan is not something investors want to hear. At least not American investors. That's a lot of time for something to go wrong or to fail to turn a profit.

I am a Sprint customer. Their service sucks sometimes but the price keeps me with them. If the competition would offer comparable plans at even only slightly above Sprint's rates I would make the switch. I don't think they have another 300 years in them, especially without an American company at the helm.

Well I thought the same thing, but then i realized that I would rather pay the outrageous price and have ridiculously fast 4G LTE EVERYWHERE!!... unfortunately I am still with sprint

Sprint is alright in my books where I live (after I got the airave the only place left without strong service in my city is covered), but I want 4G everywhere I go, and faster and more 3G, and better phones (not their fault). If softbank keeps most of the prices/plans/contracts the same, and just boosts mobile data speeds and coverage I cant wait for Sprint to be bought out!

Yeah I agree, I hope soft bank improves the network and I think they should transform it into a GSM Network...id love that

Hopefully the AT&T/Verizon variants will be as easy to unlock as the S3 was on Verizon. It didn't seem to take too long for the S3/Note 2 to have their bootloader unlocked.

Hey there... about Sprint:
Was pretty happy with picking up my S4 from Sprint.
Went to check it out on the second day of sales. They said, "Oh, we just sold the last one a couple hours ago."
I was all like, "Oh crap, and I wasn't going to come at all because I thought they would be sold out."
The guy said, "We will have more tomorrow"
So I came back the next day and got one!
