As you can see from the current lead story over on VZW Info, it is clear now that Verizon’s ambitious plans to have EV-DO coverage nationwide by the middle of 2005 are now dead in the water. Markets that are possible (if not probable) targets for launch of Sprint’s EV-DO service later this year are now delayed by Verizon to the point in time that Verizon had planned to be completed with EV-DO deployment.
And you wonder why the T606 never made it out…
This is very good news for Sprint. If Sprint can stay on-track with their deployment plans, they now have a very good chance of having the first overlay of a 3G network with a next-generation 3G network in the United States.
