Sprint 3rd quarter results

[ChadBroChillz]

You gotta look beyond the surface, but the numbers are promising. just last year the recapture rate was 27%, and now we have had two quarters of 59 and 60%. The Sprint brand has gone from 46.3 million subs to 52.8 million subs in a year. The nextel platform really messes up their numbers, but I can understand not just dropping all of them at once. 60% recapture rate is very enticing, and I believe it could become even higher as network vision progresses.

What do you guys think will come first...

iDEN subs at 800k or the June 2013 shutdown?

 

I think after they hit 800K, they could just force the rest over to CDMA/LTE and shut it down.

Is there something special about 800k subscribers on iDEN? Is it a magic number somehow once you hit it the FCC will let you wield the sword of Azeroth and leigh siege to the Nextel horde?

 

I've been playing too much WOW...

SMR is known as the 800MHz band. 800k customers. Sounds like a magic number to me, lol.

800k just sounds good.
