I live in northern CA, sacramento area.

on Tmobile network, with my N800 tethered to my SE TM506, I get about 760-800kbps download and about 200kbps upload.

will current 3G devices be able to take advantage of the HSPA+ speeds?

The n900 has a HSPA+ radio capable upto 10mbps compared to the iphone 3g's which is capable only up to 7.2mbps.

I must just use the data plan for my n900 and keep my g1 as it has the minutes on it... The dataplan does come with unlimited texting right?

I think you're right that the N900 does have 10mbps HSPA (actually HSDPA and HSUPA to be more exact) which is good, but NOT 21mbps HSPA+.

But no biggie, 'cause I don't think anything else does yet either. Well maybe a USB 3G dongle or something is available, I dunno, but not phones. If I understand the situation, 10mbps is state-of-the-art for now and the next few months, at least.
