Nearly 1.3 Mbps sustained download speed, AT&T HSDPA & Motorola V3xx

I was just downloading the latest Java update from Sun over AT&T
Wireless HSDPA with my V3xx, and the sustained download speed as
measured by Firefox was 133 KBytes/sec*, which compares pretty well to
wired consumer broadband. See <http://i28.tinypic.com/2qw1nx0.png>
What's not to like?

* Over 1 Mbps net transfer speed, or nearly 1.3 Mbps raw speed

Its camera is not as sharp as V9's, let alone Panasonic / Minolta
/ Canon cameras. No gps either.
Its box & manual & webpage www.motorola.com/consumer/v/index.htm
are coy on whether it has USB v2. 1 shop has refused to run
Sandra ( diagnostic ) for me to see whether USB is v2.
What price was yours ? The lowest here ( in Carre4, M'sia ) is
M$ 798.

True, but then no cell phone I've tried is able to produce pictures
I consider acceptable, which is why I have real digital cameras.

>No gps either.

True, although I personally don't see that as much of a weakness. It
runs Google Maps very well, and Navizon <http://www.navizon.com/> may
become available.

Ran a quick test, and it takes about 13 mins to copy 695 MB of data from
memory card to computer. That's about 7 Mbps, so it would seem to be
full speed rather than hi-speed. While it would be nice if it were
faster, that's not a high priority with me.

I paid $75 after carrier subsidy. It's currently free after carrier
subsidy.

The original EV-DO service had asymmetric data rates, with much
faster download (for fast delivery to the handset) than upload, with
quoted average download speeds of around 400 to 700 kbps, with burst
rates of 2 Mbps, and 10X slower average upload speeds of 40 to 60
kbps.

EV-DO Rev. A (Revision A) service steps up the upload rates to near
parity, with average upload speeds at 300 to 400 kbps and average
download speeds of 450 to 800 kbps. In the Philadelphia region,
Verizon quotes typical download speeds of 600 kbps to 1.4 mbps (burst
up to 3.1 mbps) and typical upload speeds of 500 to 800 kbps (burst
up to 1.8 mbps).

Full speed, as I wrote.
