(DC isn't one of them... yet!) (RJ, however, does get it!)
Press Announcement
AT&T plans to begin deployment of HSPA 7.2 in six major U.S. cities, including Charlotte, Chicago, Dallas, Houston, Los Angeles and Miami, with initial service availability expected in these markets by the end of the year. All told, the company plans to deploy HSPA 7.2 in 25 of the nation’s 30 largest markets by the end of 2010, and to reach about 90 percent of its existing 3G network footprint with HSPA 7.2 by the end of 2011.
The upgraded network platform allows for theoretical peak speeds of 7.2Mbps. Typical real-world downlink and uplink speeds experienced by customers with upgraded 3G will be less than the theoretical peak and will vary based on a number of factors, including location, device, and overall traffic on the local wireless network at a given time.
7.2Mbps? YES PLEASE!

7.2 MBps huh? So that HSDPA connection that I've been using the last couple years, which ran at a nice steady 5-6 mbps was just my imagination? (ATT Fuze w/hacked ROM, ATT 8525 and Tilt before it.)
