Another data point, using the speakeasy test:

WinXP desktop / Wired: 1981 down, 678 up (Verizon DSL)
Sony notebook / WiFi: 1988 down, 662 up (Verizon DSL)
Nokia N800 / WiFi: 1963 down, 643 up (Verizon DSL)
Nokia N800 / Bluetooth: 617 down, 82 up (Verizon EV-DO, RAZR V3m)

If memory serves me, the Bluetooth / EV-DO results are slightly better than Verizon's original DSL rollout (and probably comparable to their current base level DSL offering).
