    Who else thinks Verizon's network is really slow? Is it just me but it drives me nuts sometimes.

    Maybe. I'm in NY so it could be a network issue in our area. Its always the same for me. If I use it for tethering I get better speed. If I use it for normal data stuff through the phone itself I get a lot of lag sometimes

    Maybe it the apps that I use or the web sites I visit. Who knows. Like now the speed is pretty good. Most Of the time its not. I don't think its the phone because this like my 4th one and its always the same.

    it could have to do with how far away from the tower you are and how good the signal is. Im sure its not the network probably just your signal strength.

    im on the west coast in central california and i get good coverage and 3G pretty much everywhere

    but hands down in areas ive lived in (central cali, phoenix metro & surrounding areas) Verizon wins all other carriers.

    My phone receives three g 99% percent of the time. No lag and no problems. Verizon does a good job.

    In az its slow as ****. Verision sells a $45/month plan in addition to the $30. I think the 45 is only one that acheives 3g speed.

    For the poster who said vzw was slow in AZ... I didn't have lag. Superb speed, great coverage.. No problems for me.

    The price difference has nothing to do with speed it is BIS vs BES

    I get some of the slowest 3g speeds imaginable. can you say "just a little faster than dialup?"

    It seems I guess depending where you are there are differences.
