Has worked like a charm since.

1mb/s down
0.35mb/s up
On 3.5G in VA, USA

I just signed up w/T-Mo, $10 "web2go", and only the "Internet2.voicestream.com" APN works for me. I get 3G/3.5G (from Baltimore thru Dulles ), but I'm concerned that speedtest.net has my location as somewhere in Kansas, instead of Maryland (latency issues if all data has to go halfway accross country and back).

For those using other APNs, is your location being reported correctly on speedtest.net? WiFi on both my home circuits is correct.
