At the beginning of 2005, EVDO was about 1% coverage in a few city centers and then exploded.

Why you sneaky old fool. The PPC-6700 was released at the end of 2005, not the beginning. You stated that “when my phone was released” that there was 1% coverage. This has been typical of your misrepresentations through out our entire conversation. You have been using similar tactics in every area we have discussed. Shame on you! You are a very disingenuous person!

That's an example of the nits you pick. . . I did not look up the exact date of your phone's release. . . it was October 2005. . . and the build out of EVDO was at 1% in early 2005 . . . Your phone was one of the first EVDO capable phones on the market. Good for it and you. . . but I was not being sneaky. The reviews I was reading were from APRIL to AUGUST of 2005. . . obvious now pre-release models sent to reviewers. . . and mentioned that EVDO was now averrable in the SF Bay area and the reviewers are all in Silicon Valley. . . that coincided with my recollection of the buildout. I stand by my comment. Nothing sneaky about it.

Yup, just checked - HTC showed the PPC-6700 at the Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas in January 2005 with a list of features. Finally Released October 2005.
