Phone Model: Motarola Backflip
Android Version: Android 1.5

Typical # of Bars: 3 bars

Upload Speed Mbps: 0.12 Mbps
Comments: Is everyone getting upload speeds like that. I guess I'm getting greedy nowadays since rating upload in Kbps has gone wayside. Aside from that the Backflip for AT&T really blows but I don't think that's part of the problem. I was originally afraid that it wasn't going to work for the Backflip because AT&T doesn't allow 3rd party apps to be installed but way-to-go Tether. The tethering now not as truly agonizing. BTW Tether, please give me the the Android version for free?! Pretty please? I already paid for the Tether BlackBerry and Pdanet Android! LOL! I don't even need to compare the two. The Tether version is a way faster and better product.
