mobilitytoday.com — Persuasive evidence from Mobility Today shows that Verizon may be purposely throttling down the speed of its EVDO network. The video shows a phone zooming through speed tests, while the Treo 700w chokes on those same tests. The Treo?s slow speed makes syncing with an Exchange Server an exercise in tedium. - Gizmodo

As far as I know, no Treo other than the 700w has the ability to run EVDO. You're likely on the older/slower network whose name I can't remember but has the letters RXT1 in some combination. 50-100kbps is normal there.

Thanks for the info. I was thinking off upgrading to a treo 650 but I guess it wont be much faster internet wise.

True.... I have traveled to Asia about 7 years ago... what they had then was more honest and better working then what we have in America now. Look up AOL and its history of law suites... also ATT and many other corp american telcos and you'll find a legacy of fraid, scam and such.The only thing corp america does well is hype up and manipulate the media to brain wash a global community of drones.I am soooooooooooooooo sick of corp america... I am ready for a change.... I want to see foreign telcos in America and I don't mean from europe, like tmobile, which sucks.
