It seems that Rogers users are getting decent speeds with a USB adapter, but not their phones. What gives?

Discrimination, that's what. i'm posting this at a quarter of the advertised available speed (7.2 Mbps) and half of what my phone is capable of (3.6 Mbps). 
Let's not even get started about the 21 Mbps HSPA+ that we just got here. Posted via RS Mobile | |

You'd think that most people would be getting results more than half a meg per second though.

Weird...so this is the 3G speedtest on my Fido iPhone: 
And this is the 3G speedtest on my laptop tethered to my iPhone via USB: 
I ran the test multiple times on both devices and the numbers don't change much. Weird that my tethered speed is slower.

I guess tethering slows it down somehow.
My "7.2 Mbps" speed has never gone over 2 Mbps. EVER.

Funny thing is, the upload on 3G is faster than WiFi.  | |
