    I know the Fargo-Grand Forks area is getting Ev-Do this fall... But I havent herd anything about the Detroit Lakes area.. I also believe the "Test Drive" option verizon offers may cover the first 30 days...

        Like Jim said, EVDO supposedly has been coming for a long time. I'll believe it when I see the EV on my phone.

          We heard two summers ago it should be there in Fargo...

          Things get pushed back all the time, there are bigger markets without EV-DO larger then Fargo....

          EVDO is nice though

              I know I have been hearing that as well.. It did get pushed back a couple of times. But I have talked our corporate DATA guy and he said it will be here...

                well I have to give CMK a call this evening...

                I was in Fargo at about 7pm and my phone kept switching between the usual 1x and EV....

                maybe it's closer than expected?

                      Yeah, thats odd. I don't think my RAZR or E815 has gone to EVDO yet.

                        so, is my phone just a freak?

                        I've been getting EV in Fargo most of the time now, but I also have managed to switch to EV back home where a year ago I hardly got any reception.

                          I think it is. I have not gotten EVDO at all in either of my phones.

                            well that's what I was told at Cell Comm today.. sometime in October. 'Supposedly' they've been testing things and that's why I see EV sometimes (and the Razr2 I was looking at was bouncing between EV and 1x).

                            If so, I'm going to be half tempted to look at a smart phone of some sort instead...

                                alltel/sprint have had evdo for over a year now....

                                verizon just sucks 🙂

                                if your still looking for internet service in the DL area....just go to alltel and get a air card...it about the same speed as DSL and works anywhere your cell phone works.. ...cost $60 a month though.

                                    EVDO went live in Fargo today for sure. I noticed that right before lunch today.

                                    Did a speed test and got 750k/sec down to my phone. 🙂

                                      live permanently or temporarily.

                                      I noticed I had it temporarily here (but I don't expect to get it all the time out here) the same I've had it for the last couple weeks.
