What is the difference between these 2?

EVDO is high speed data on CDMA (sprint and vzw and comes in rev 0 (768kbps) or rev A (1.5mbps), both are considered a 3G (3rd generation) technology but do not allow simultaneous voice and data. 3G is the GSM (T-mobile, att, most of the world) 3rd generation technology and comes in HSDPA/HSUPA/UMTS and is 3.6mbps or 7.2mbps. It does allow voice and data at the same time. A little clearer now?

I don't believe Tmobile does voice & data at the same time. At least my 9700 did not.

If you are in a 3G area then it should do it. 3G (real 3G, not CDMA's 3G) uses 1 band for download and 1 for upload.
