AT&T users: 4 vs. 4S download speeds?

I just got 5Mbps with three bars. I'm pretty happy.
Yes, and that's no higher than the 4 can do
Wow, I have AT&T and I have NEVER seen higher than 2.4Mps.
Impressive number which is still lower than the 7.2 max the iphone 4 theoretically supports

I am getting great numbers on my iP4 with IOS5 already.
71ms/DL10.62/UL1.44
Of course, I'm Still waiting on UPS for my 4S to arrive.

Are you sure that's correct? iPhone 4 maxes out at a theoretical 7.2Mbps. 10.62Mbps download is impossible.
Not sure how to post a pic, but would be glad to do so, if someone can tell me how.
When you make a reply, you can click "manage attachments" to upload a pic. This button is below the reply box.
Regardless, it's an error because the iphone 4 isn't capable of anything over 7.2Mbps. It's not uncommon for speedtests to be incorrect under certain conditions.
You positive you weren't connected to WIFI by chance?

hit the home button and sleep button on your iphone then go to camera roll and email yourself the photo and upload it here

Yeah, definitely still good numbers. I get about 6.15Mbps down on my iPhone 4 in Toronto, so I'm hoping for an improvement on that.
Here is my speed test in Dallas TX for the 4S
I like the speed increase considering I was only getting around 1.5 - 2MB a sec on the iPhone 4. Not only that but youtube and other apps that lagged out run really smooth now. Cosmetically there isn't a difference in the phonse but power and speed wise makes the iPhone 4S a great pickup for me (plus needing the extra space very badly)

I did a very informal side by side with my girlfriends iP4 early this evening.
iP4S Speedtest was ~5 down and 1 up
iP4 Speedtest was ~4.5 down and 1 up (I don't remember the exact numbers)
Even though the downlink speeds were similar, full size webpages loaded quite a bit faster (5-10 seconds faster) on the 4S.

How do you know your on hspa+ vs regular 3G because my understanding was AT&T never completed the rollout.

I guess you really don't know but if you speed is higher or you check there coverage map. That is probably why att wants the 4g icon or at least the H+.
Did you have a 3G at one point? if so did you get those type of numbers with it? I have never seen these sort of speeds except wifi.
Now that it's 6:30am and everybody else who might be using the network is asleep, I just got a download speed of 9.39 Mbps on my 4s
