KB/s = Kb/s = K bytes/second in my book.
Kbps = K bits per second.

Yes I was seeing the equivalent of 256-384k dsl line except for the 
latency.  I need to play around with this some more.   I saw a marked 
improvement moving the laptop upstairs next to a window versus the main 
floor of the house inside a room.

I just want to make sure this all works out for my sister before I am 
stuck with the card.   I still have about 2 weeks to return it.

FYI: The cost if $60/mo with no data limit if you already are a Cingular 
subscriber.
