I have a couple of big issues with this article. They are so bad, that it throws everything they did into question. Here is Quote #1:     Are they serious? Sprint is spending a billion dollars

My Galaxy Nexus struggles to find 3G service when I turn on/off airplane mode. Almost as if it wants to connect to LTE but it doesn't...

I'm in Sandy Springs and still haven't gotten "the text." I did get the fastest 3g speedtest result early this morning. It was 2210k down and 1500k up on 3g so something is going on.

 

This is like waiting for Santa Claus to show up.

:-/ Now I want it more, or at least faster 3G speeds. I have an average of 400k down in San Antonio.

Correct me if I'm wrong but word of this text message to customers is based off the Inside Sprint Now post and not anything officially announced by Sprint, right?

One problem with these leaked internal communications is the over-eager among us get all geeked up as if it's the gospel and then when it doesn't come to pass they get all butt-hurt and act as if Sprint is misleading them and letting them down again.

 

Forget video of people lined up outside of stores waiting for devices; I want to see video of dudes huddled around towers running Speed Test over and over again.

 

"Dude my ping was 125ms! Dude, that's nothing! I just got 95ms ping with 1.78mbps d/l! Aww, man, my ping sucks donkey balls!! I f'ing hate Sprint!!"

I noticed that too, but I am contributing it to eHPRD trying to decide weither to hand off on EVDO or LTE... seems theres a long pause in neogiating.

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      Was in Red Hook again and I swear there are more Link5G sites as there are Verizon, T-Mobile, and AT&T small cells combined in the entire neighborhood. It seemed like every other street I turned down had one installed. Hopefully carriers will start hopping on them soon. Seems like a lot of effort to go through for no one to use them.  — — — — — T-Mobile converted the Sprint site on top of NYU Langone Brooklyn in Sunset Park. I first mapped one sector of it back in November 2023 but I thought it was a small cell so I never pinned it but I ran into another sector today which caught me off guard. I'm unable to find a permit for the conversion so it's definitely a surprise. There's another T-Mobile site 1 block away that T-Mobile initially installed back in 2019 so I'm kinda surprised they're keeping both considering the Sprint conversion is on a much taller building and coule potentially provide much better coverage to the entire area.

      Came across another Crown Castle Solutions multi-tenant oDAS node in Brooklyn. Located at 40.7002286, -73.9612666. Nothing on T-Mobile or AT&T so I'm assuming these are all Verizon nodes that Crown Castle is anticipating another carrier will hop on down the line.
