1Gbit/s stationary, 100Mbit/s when moving.

That's good to know I just assumed transmission speeds always meant while moving since it is a phone, I never even thought it meant when stationary.
With HSDPA and 4G a lot of people are using it to replace their home internet (not so much in the US, but elsewhere it's a big thing). Hence the current capacity crunch mentioned in the article
For Sprint, in most areas, 4G means 50Mbit/s when stationary within range of a WiFi access point, and 50 kbit/s otherwise.
