I feel dumb asking this, but on phones like the UpStage that support EVDO, does this mean that when I access the web on the phones browser I'll get much faster speeds than what I already get with my MM-8300? Is this for all internet-related activities on the phone itself, or are these just speeds you get on a computer when you're using the phone as a modem? I have the $15 Vision Package and I'd like to know whether or not I'll see a nice speed boost when I get a newer phone that supports EVDO

If you live in an EVDO area then yes it will very noticable. The speed does apply to everything that uses the internet.

Yeah, can't imagine being stuck with vision speeds, especially with a MM phone. I canceled my Sprint TV plan with my old 7400, slow vision speeds made watching/listening to media a joke. PV phones offer faster downloads, uploads, browsing, ect ect, definitly worth it imo.
The 8300 is an evdo phone. Even though you have a basic Vision plan, you are probably using an evdo signal if one is available in your location. To see, enter ##debug# then choose Data Screen. You'll probably see evdo in the lower left screen.

Its a Vision phone and is listed as 1xRTT. My friend has this phone and its just as slow as any other vision phone.
