In the past few months, Verizon Wireless has been testing its high speed Internet 3G connection in California’s agriculture hot spot through wee hours of the evening. All that testing has paid off as Verizon Wireless has announced today that Central California wireless users can no enjoy high speed access from their phone or computer like nearly the rest of the state has been using for the last year. While I myself still see 1x on my phones display and I more than deep in the allotted area, I’m sure it’s due to the signal tower in my town. Hopefully that’ll be resolved soon!

Customers in Stockton and Modesto can now access the latest high-speed business and entertainment services on their wireless phones, laptop computers, and other wireless devices thanks to Verizon Wireless.

New capabilities come with the expansion of the company’s Evolution-Data Optimized (EV-DO) network, enabling both its BroadbandAccess and V CAST services. Customers in Stockton and Modesto now have access to the same high-speed Verizon Wireless services launched earlier in the San Francisco Bay Area and Southern California.

“Verizon Wireless is committed to expanding our high-speed data network across the nation and is proud to announce the launch in Stockton and Modesto,” said Rich Garwood, Northern California/Nevada regional president for Verizon Wireless. “These two communities continue to experience a high rate of growth as so many people make their homes in the area while commuting to jobs in Sacramento and the Bay Area, and vice versa. Now, customers who both live and travel through these areas have access to the true mobility of wireless data.”
