My guesses are:

(a) that Madison might well be, since AT&T has installed many new towers
in WI over the past two years, and those new towers are probably easily
upgradable to UMTS/HSPA, and

(b) that AT&T is probably waiting for the availability of HSUPA, since
it's more efficient and less disruptive to jump all the way to full HSPA
instead of making two smaller steps.
