The Providence market is not a 2012 market. It will not begin NV/LTE deployment until 2013. Most secondary markets with WiMax coverage seem to be a lower priority since they already have some sort of 4G coverage.

raleigh is a secondary market with wimax... what are you trying to say rob? hows that sante fe market coming along?

 

Absolutely correct. Some markets are a higher priority for Sprint. Most likely because of demographics. But I'm sure you wont mind that Wake Forest gets coverage before Providence, right? You can always get in line behind New Mexico.

I'm in the northern CT market and i know your getting LTE (RI) before me. Hopefully it will be close to Q1 2013 but will see.

Hope you remember me from SU.. I'm in Albuquerque, NM.

 

You better keep me updated.. I'm tempted to switch carriers. Last speed test I did on Sprint here about 2 weeks ago was 870ms ping, 0.03Mbps down and 0.01Mbps up..

Just move a few miles north east into north attleboro and you should get it quite soon.

I do remember you. I even was over at the fast Calvary ABQ site a week ago and it was slow. :(

 

Its gotten better around Santa Fe with upgrades from network.sprint.com. And Los Alamos/Española areas have always been fine.

Don't feel too bad about Rhode Island, I live in Salt Lake City, Utah and we're not even listed anywhere. I'm a bit bummed since I just got a SGS3 a couple weeks ago. Normally see 1MB down/0.8MB up around here.

Don't worry. I am sure Salt Lake City will be a 3rd round market which is slated for a mid to late 2013 release. There are other cities in the same pickle as Salt Lake City like Denver, Pittsburgh, Phoenix, Cleveland, Las Vegas, St. Louis, OK City, etc that you could argue that it should have been in the 2nd round. Its just that you can't please everyone and folks will get mad if their market hasn't been chosen yet.

Does anyone know any information about south carolina? I know that we are a bleeding state with sprint, but we are having so many network issues due to capiticy. Every year from May-Sept the network goes to crap, 59kbps download, texts failing, calls wont connect. I mean you cant even dial 911 sometimes. And thats aganist the law. We get more people here in those months than NYC has living there. I mean why is Puerto Rico getting LTE/NV before some decent size areas in the continental US. Just wondering if anyone can give me any information on the myrtle beach market. Thanks in advance!

The Myrtle Beach market will not begin deployment until 2013. Why does everyone bag on Puerto Rico? The PR/VI market has more people in it than the Myrtle Beach market. Also, Sprint has a large market share in PR. Why wouldn't they do Puerto Rico?

I understand that they have more people living there anually. My issue has this has been going on for over 2 years from the months of may-sept. we are a vacation destination, and when you are on vacation your cell is eveything now. Its your phone, camera, gps , mp3 play, ect... Like i metioned before, we have more people that are here during vaction months than NYC and puerto rico combine. Sprint got sued by the FCC last year beacuse of the situation. You would think it would be higher up on the priority list.

I am not familiar with the lawsuit you reference. Please provide a link.
