Has anyone tried an internet speed test whilst tethering?

[m.n]

Just wondering if anyone has done this yet and what speeds they've clocked?

Why does it show your server location as being in Springfield, MO when your location says you're in Miami?

no idea. I always figured it was an ATT thing. speedtest.net thru the iPhone sometimes gave me a chicago server!

That's faster than I managed to get connected to WiFi at work! Shows how crap our ISP is!

Here's mine for O2 in England:

I'm not sure if O2 has 7.2Mbps HSDPA, but Fido/Rogers here in Canada have already implemented 7.2Mbps HSDPA.
