yeah i noticed the 3g this morning at midnight, when i was switching roms on my g1... getting good speeds of max 900kbps in Newport News/ denbeigh area....
It appears they have the HR area under Woodbridge Va 3G rollout ( which is weird )...

I had the inside scoop that it was coming here today. Came on about midnight, but was cutting on and off. Seems more stable now. Only getting about 500kbs with 3 bars where I'm at now.

When I woke on the 17th the day after my birthday I noticed Cleveland had 3G. It is fantastic when it actually works.

I got 818k down and 126k up but it is so unreliable that the only places I get 3G service is in my car or when I am outside for as soon as I go into work, my apartment, bars, friends houses, etc forget about 3G service.

Dang, I was just about to post this thinking I was the first to notice. I was driving throught Newport News up to DC on Saturday (took me SIX hours!!!) and I saw the 3G icon. I was like, why does Newport News get 3G before the south side?!?! But today I looked again and whoo hoo!!! I got the 3G!!!
