  1. http://www.verizon.com/about/news/switch-verizon-unlimited-and-get-hottest-phones-free Guess what? Verizon is even offering a free phone. I have a feeling that Verizon is going to see a big increase in customers because of this plan.
  2. Mobilities methods have much to be desired. They've created a long history of these disputes.
  3. I don't think it's a bad move, it's the consumer that's being an idiot. It isn't a good idea to suddenly cut people off from even being able to make emergency calls.
  4. Even in my small sized city I still see several players (I sure can't hold a gym for long). It just gets less attention now since the initial hype had died. Since my local mall has a gym and many spawns but no Pokestop, it will definitely drive traffic to the Sprint store there.
  5. I heard a very credible rumor a couple months ago that Sprint was going to make every Sprint store a Pokestop. I bet this is the announcement that it's really happening. While some people say it's not cool, It will drive traffic. At worst, it's an easy way to increase visibility.
  6. Having looked at it again, that sure looks like a network engineer's phone. Besides the two sprint ones, it looks like a user ID notification and a Samsung diagnostic notification. So it might not be publicly accessible.
  7. I can think of several co-workers at my company who never clear their notification bar. Heck, mine can get that high at times too.
  8. And donated a bit. It had been too long since i had thrown some support to this site.
  9. I just don't know what numbers to look for. I was just shocked to see it. It must be on a different tower though because I didn't see B41 antennas on the lone LTE tower there.
  10. At&t does not have the cash. There is 40 billion dollar loan (about 45%) involved in this transaction.
  11. They don't have to be ready. Technically the only carrier that supports it is Verizon. You're on your own on other networks.
  12. It might be, except it's the same Ad Google used before the announcement with the only difference being that the rectangle becomes an image of the phone at the end. And all the banner ads, even on google's own sites say "only on Verizon."
  13. Google is sure pushing the Verizon partnership. Their ads don't mention the Google store, just say "only on Verizon."
  14. The answer is contained in the NYT article. Claure was pretty clear this would require no network investment.
  15. Yeah, I missed that because the rest of the map is downlink spectrum. Does that mean there's only 15mhz of B41 or is there 30mhz total of B41 that can be deployed in a tdd configuration? Looking at the map, I tend to think the latter (where the map treats everything as an fdd deployment).
  16. For anyone interested in seeing what soectrum sprint owns in our area. I wonder if it would be worth sprint deploying a 15x15 B41 carrier in Cedar Rapids? http://www.fiercewireless.com/wireless/2016-how-much-lte-spectrum-do-verizon-at-t-t-mobile-and-sprint-have-and-where
  17. And us cellular has been doing this long before T-Mobile adopted this method. Eventually everyone copies everyone.
  18. While the phone is compatible with Sprint because of Google Fi, will Sprint whitelist it for use as a Sprint customer?
  19. Interesting that is supports B25 CA. I don't think sprint has any plans for that?
  20. This is also why sprint has been slow in their small cell rollout. Notice the number of rejections mobilitie has gotten from the towns and the packers. Hard to make progress when the cities won't let you do the work.
