Looks like I will wait till June before upgrading my 7130e

Does this mean there's not even going to be an EVDO 8100?

I would doubt it if there changing there whole platform in three months. But who knows? Company's do funny things like releasing the 8800 with no 3g or wifi only to release the 8300 three months later with.

HHHHmmm isnt that what they said about the 7250??? THat it wouldnt support REV-0?

it is true the 6800 will be the 1st rev-a device other than the 5 or so aircards we already have.... btw REV-A is smoking fast....where it has been released, that is... The second REV-a phone I have heard rumor of is he IC902

How do you know current 8703e units are not already equipped for REV A?

There have been some card made last year by verizon that are REV A. Compatible. I am thinking and hoping REV A is built in the current 8703e from Sprint.
