t-mobile 8700G chip faster/web than Sprint 8703E

8700G chip faster/web than 8703E

---

I have both the 8700G from T-Mobile and the 8703E from Sprint... I thought the 8703E would be 10X faster than the 8700G when using the web because it has 3G... BUT the 8700G beat the 8703E slightly each time download OTA apps or browsing... in the new york area..

after looking more into the chips side of the device, I can see why the 8700G still browses faster on EDGE than the 8703E on EVDO

those of you with 8700G's thinking of moving to the 8703E for faster speeds, think twice... it will only make sense you wanted to use the device as a modem, sprint currently has 39.99 unlimted with a phone as modem feature.

more on the Qualcomm chip MSM6500 Chipset Solution
from the info on the page it appears like it supports Rev A. for speeds up to to 3.1 Mbits/se when used as a modem
