With no 3G it won't garner the attention of the Bold or Thunder, but the Javelin is shaping up to be a very solid offering...

You sure the niagra isn't the cdma version of the Bold??

The Javelin and Niagra are variants of each other, the CDMA camp is just getting the Thunder and Niagra (with EV-DO)

Incorrect! Bold = AT&T & Sprint! Javelin = T-Mobile Niagara = Verizon! The Reasoning In Way They Have Different Names & Why Didn't All 4 Just Release The Bold Is Because The Bold Is The Same Of The Other 2 But The Companies Requested Special Features!

so the comparison is between the gsm, 2g speed, or the cdma, 3gspeed, with better coverage.. well, lets see here.. oh wait, better coverage and faster, i think ill stick w/ verizon... and get a niagra or thunder :)

Im kind of bummed I like HTC but I wish their was a release of exact date for Jav, Bold (US), and Thunder and not just "Q3"

I'm definitely sure if Verizon is getting the Niagra phone it would be 3g capable since Verizon prides themselve to be the best 3g company out there. The T-Mobile verison on the other hand maybe something to think about. Most likely since T-Mobile is just now releasing their 3g network and a couple of other new 3g phones the Javelin may be 3g also. Let's just hope T-Mobile doesn't make the mistake of releasing the Javelin on their old Edge network.

they do? thats pretty funny, b.c theyre the most restrictive one out there and have been beaten to the punch with 3.5g and 4g

In the US, T-Mobile was the first carrier to start offering UMA services. UMA has been officially ratified by the 3GPP and has been renamed GAN, or Generic Access Network, though most often the technology is still referred to by the UMA name. Definition of "UMA"http://www.mobileburn.com/defi

i cant beleiv some of these posts! 3.5g? 3g on cdma network? are u kidding me do u just make this up as u go. 3g is a gsm only feature evan this site gets it wrong when they give the specs for a cdma phone calling it 3g. if u have a cdma phone its either rev. A or rev. 0
