Good news for Telus subscribers living in Southern Ontario, Montreal and Winnipeg, as now they can expect faster download and upload speeds on the compatible handsets. In case you haven’t figured out, the carrier has upgraded parts of its EVDO network to Rev. A standard, with rest of the EVDO coverage areas to follow later this year.
According to Telus, users in affected areas can expect upload speeds of 300 to 400 Kbps with maximum possible upload speeds of 1.8 Kbps; on downlink side, the carrier promises speeds of approximately 450 to 800 Kbps to a maximum possible speed of 3.1 Mbps.
There you have it. Soon you’ll have no reason to “blame Canada” when you roam northern of United States.

Dusan has been using smartphones since their introduction and is now following the latest trends in the industry. The "convergence" is what he's most excited about, and writing about it is the next logical thing to do. He thinks that using a smartphone is what everyone who cares about their time should do. In addition to his interests in mobile phones, Dusan also loves to experiment with the latest web and mobile 2.0 services. The idea of accessing and managing your information from any device no matter where you are simply amazes him. Whether it's an online to-do list, note taking service or a video sharing social network, he's there to try it out. He admits though, he's still searching for the ultimate web-based organizational tool, which "sings" perfectly with the mobile PIM application. Dusan used to run SymbianWatch.com which later became part of IntoMobile. He lives in Serbia, South-East Europe, from where he edits the site on a daily basis.
