Rev A arrives in Alaska

The Alaskan mobile operator Alaska Communications Systems (ACS) has launched high speed EV-DO Revision A technology on its CDMA2000 cellular network. ‘Rev A is the latest evolution in mobile internet. It will enable ACS wireless customers to move data – everything from pictures and spreadsheets to movies and music – at the fastest mobile speeds available in the US,’ said Connie Dorman, ACS Director of Marketing. The firm says it has already forged Rev A roaming agreements in Canada and expects to conclude similar deals with US operators later this year.
