PC World 3G Tests
PCWorld and testing partner, Novarum
Inc., tested the download speeds,
upload speeds, and network
dependability of the AT&T, Sprint, TMobile, and Verizon 3G networks
20 locations in each of 13 U.S. cities.
Altogether we ran more than 51,000
separate tests covering 850 square
miles of wireless cell coverage
servicing 7 million wireless
subscribers
In our tests last spring, AT&T posted an
average download speed of 818 kbps
(kilobits per second) across 13 cities.
In our tests conducted in December
2009 and January 2010, AT&T’s
average download speed increased
to 1410 kbps.

Mobile Connections – Network Attributes
• Upgrade to 7.2 technology
can significantly improve
email, browsing and video
streaming experience
• Device must support higher
speed AND backward
compatibility for optimized
fallback experience during
new technology deployment
• We have 10 HSPA 7.2compatible devices available
today

Hot, Secure, Mobile Applications
• GPS Tracking: Tracking buses or other district vehicles
can identify route issues, reduce waste by reducing idling
times, ensure employees are where they are supposed to
be.
• Asset Tracking: Small, magnetic devices can be attached
to equipment and anything else that tends to go missing or
is more valuable than the cost of the tracking service.
• Workflow Management: Track processes and
transactions from order issuing to job completion and all
steps in between on your mobile device
• Content Delivery: New web-based technologies allow
relatively quick and easy access to most datasystems which
can then be delivered to your mobile device. Examples:
Student Information, Library Resources, HR and PayRoll.
