    1XEV is 3G. It's just that Sprint is on a different kind of 3G network than AT&T or T-mobile. The Tour doesn't have WIFI. Hope that helps.

    just some freindly information here, make sure you search the forums before posting a new thread, also in the faq section of the forums there are several how to threads that really help also check youtube for home made how too videos. I had similar issues when i first got my tour. Now about the 3g situation, i was told that when they upgrade the tour os to 5.0 the 1xev will change to 3g, but rest assured that ive personally verified this that 1xev in all caps is 3g its just sprints version. Different network systems. Hope this help.
