As folks have been coming up with suggested names for the Sprint subsidiary of SoftBank I immediately came up with simply combining the two names into one... SPrint+softbANK=SPANK.*

 

Ok, ok, *I* thought it was funny.

 

Taking that theme a bit farther I felt I should combine the SoftBank and Sprint logos for a combined look...

Someone else suggested that they need to bring back Mr. Baker (Sprint's "Overcoat Guy") to push the new company, and going with that I thought a proper combination might be Overcoat Guy, Otosan (the SoftBank dog) and the new logo...

Once I saw that, I suddenly realized it reminded me of an image that stuck in my mind from the announcement presentation live from Tokyo the other morning with Masayoshi Son (SoftBank CEO) and Dan Hesse (Sprint CEO) shaking hands on-stage...

I don't know, maybe it was just me.

 

Thought I'd share it anyway.

 

 

* As it stands right now it appears the "New Sprint" Holding company will be formed with Sprint as a subsidiary.

Dan Hesse, a physical giant. Yet, in the announcement, Mr. Son overshadowed Dan...immeasurably. He was so aggressive. I liked it. ;)

Absolutely! Son san has an amazing "presence" and tends to dominate a group easily. Very dynamic leader is my impression.

Hey Tomas, can I use the Spank logo? I'm making a Sprint/Softbank rage comic and I was wondering if I can use it for my comic.

      I really apreciate no longer seeing n38 for T-Mobile. My s24 Ultra is reporting that Signalcheck Pro is crashing frequently.  It has the latest updates. I do occassional change sims and band preferences. Let me know if you need anything else.   Thanks.

      Network Vision/LTE - New York City Market

      By Paynefanbro · Posted

      Spent a lot of time in Westchester this weekend, specifically Yonkers and White Plains. I mapped three AT&T Nokia -> Ericsson conversions. I was super impressed with T-Mobile's macro density and not so much with AT&T's. In Yonkers it seems like T-Mobile macros outnumber AT&T macros 3 to 1 and in White Plains, 2 to 1. Another surprise was the lack of small cells on AT&T in both cities. While Cellmapper shows White Plains having no small cells, I did manage to find one in the Church Street neighborhood. While it's only one, it's an indication to me that T-Mobile intends on expanding n41 density with small cells in the city. On the other hand, in Yonkers T-Mobile has a ton of LTE small cells but none of them have been upgraded to 5G yet as far as I can tell. Crown Castle has been moving super fast in NYC and Long Island to upgrade and install new 5G small cells so I can only assume it's either a permitting or backhaul issue that's stopping them from moving full steam ahead there. — — — — — Came across this cool site in Yonkers with Verizon, T-Mobile, and Dish present.

      Other two sectors finally installed. Hopefully it goes live soon though I know from past experience that these new builds can take weeks and in some cases months to go live.
