I bought the i450 at Best Buy two days ago and have been using the regualr built in wap - it's ok...

I received my USB cable in the mail today (though they shipped wrong one, I ordered one which is data/charger in usb - perfect for carpc)

So.. I'm expecting to see iDen speeds, and then hoping to codeplug to Widen.

DSL reports I just ran:

dslreports.com speed test result on 2006-05-05 17:31:46 EST:
55 / 42
Your download speed : 55 kbps or 6.9 KB/sec.

Your upload speed : 42 kbps or 5.2 KB/sec.

Then I tried Skype - not so good but 56kb MP3 from soma.fm ran fine.

Ran another speedtest with a different server:

dslreports.com speed test result on 2006-05-05 18:10:20 EST:
53 / 35
Your download speed : 53 kbps or 6.7 KB/sec.

Your upload speed : 35 kbps or 4.3 KB/sec.

From what I've read these seem like WiDen speeds - could it be that the i450's sold now have it enabled?
