Son stated buying TMO was plan A. I'm sure he would've bid for 20x20 of 600 had that gone through. But now he has to compete in a 4 carrier market and as you said, softb is a big company with lots of opportunities for investment; throwing more of softb's money into a 4 carrier free for all is probably the least profitable.

http://www.fiercewireless.com/tech/story/wireless-carriers-may-hesitate-partner-firstnet-analysts-say/2015-06-01 If sprint won't bid on 10x10 of 600 because softb would rather spend money on video games http://www.reuters.com/article/2015/06/01/us-softbank-supercell-idUSKBN0OH23H20150601 then is b14 a viable alternative? Beggars can't be choosers.

Thanks. This is why anything more than 1080p on a phone is ludicrous. The iPhone 6+, 5.5inch, is 1080p. I don't hear anyone complaining about its resolution. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

More importantly, how big does a screen have to be before 1080p is insufficient? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

There can be compatibility. But carriers can still throttle the video stream to 1080p. Problem solved. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk -

1) carriers charge mvnos wholesale rates, not retail. The diff is that retail rate is higher to pay for advertising so if 'everyone' flees to mvnos, fine. Carriers still make money. 2) if (1) analysis is incorrect, carriers will just raise the rate they charge to mvnos. Simple. Mvnos are basically the carriers' bitches.

Like what? Plan A was to buy TMO to eliminate competition on the low end but fcc said no. If a Dem wins whitehouse, that's 4 or even 8 more years of competing against TMO and the duo. Softb may decide that it can get better returns by investing its own additional cash in India and other emerging markets. Sprint can still take on more debt to fund 600 auction and densification and if Claure delivers, THEN son can step in and inject more $ to pay off that high interest debt. If it doesn't workout, softb will be shielded somewhat. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

It's free registration. I don't know what policy is for posting content from free sites so I'll summarize. 1) sprint 2015 CAPEX is $5bil which is more akin to maintenance than network improvement. CAPEX should increase by >35% if we are believe sprint that it wants to better its network. 2) sprint says softb supports sprint yet they keep talking about selling spectrum or issuing debt. 3) softb is looking to invest in other ventures so there could be internal struggle against giving sprint more money. 4) Claure repeatedly states softb is 'behind' the network densification plan Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

Lte a isn't gonna solve att's speed issues. They need densification - macro and small cells - and to deploy their b30 already. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
