Had to run a long USB to a window to get a decent number of bars, but the stick has rthis nasty habit of showing me a strong 3G signal, but then switching down to a bar or two of EDGE when I hit the connect button. What's with that? Is Rogers, as Bell did, purposely choking off connectivity at certain times of day? I do get the occassional HSUPA signal. How is that different than HSPA?

Nice launch! In-store employees and phone support haven't even heard of the stick. Typical Rogers marketing mess-up. Wish I still lived in Australia. Rogers site says new hspa+ stick out-of-stock.
