I've also got Sprint ION. The voice is getting better. When I first got it
installed it was terrible (echos, dropped calls, call waiting would drop
your calls . . .).
They have fixed those problems and I have not had a voice issue for two or
three months.
The data is excellent. Very little down time and consistant 2-3Mbs speed.

How is the voice on Sprint ION? We had reports that data was good, but voice
had problems.
thanks,

FYI, my Sprint ION connection gives me a hop or two less than the others

My ION service has been pretty darn stable, especially the data (it's a
combined voice+data service). And the throughput is great... usually 3
Mbps or more, even through my Linksys router.
