EVDO, Anyone Having Good Experience?

I have Verizon EVDO rev A service with AirCard 595. I am heartily disappointed.

I used to have Verizon 1xRTT service, a couple years ago, and got roughly 50-70kbps download speed. This EVDO rev A is supposed to be blistering, and it is not. Most places, I get only 1-2 bars and 200-300kbps down. Best I've ever done was 4 bars and 600kpbs down. Gee, not even 1Mbps. Also the connection is prone to random disconnection, about once or twice per session.

OK, I get it free through work, but still . . .

Anyone else using one of the cellular broadband services? Getting better reception or speed?
