It is somewhat exaggerated in some cases, not as extensive as it should be in other cases. 16 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They still need to expand the size of the map lol. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkyeager Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 This is one of my favorite scenes from that movie... I love it. Also, go Sprint! Keep it up. I just though this scene fit the situation in so many ways: - Sprint coming out of being financially underwater (Enterprising rising from the ocean) - A brash new CEO of Sprint (young Captain Kirk) - CEO willing to violate the rules (Kirk brushes off the prime directive) - Freezing the Volcano before it destroys intelligent life (stopping T-Mobiles rise) - The diagram of the Enterprise in the sand (others now trying to copy Sprint like Verizon's new data plan) - The people becoming aware of new opportunities (Spark in many more places, not just limited to large cities) - The "leader" of the people explaining things wrong (certain ignorant fanboys of other carriers [many are knowledgeable]). - Beaming aboard the science officer from an area about to be destroyed (John Saw from Clearwire).

Here is a longer version of the clip: What an excellent analysis! I agree with everything you said. And I have seen the movie about 10 times (actually probably more)... I can not wait for the next one. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
z250kid Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 its all over CT now also. Also pending permits 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dkyeager Posted October 28, 2014 Author Share Posted October 28, 2014 its all over CT now also. Also pending permitsWe also have more than what is shown in Ohio. Some of the sites in the coverage area also need optimization to be more readily available. Many are waiting for improved backhaul to be significantly faster.

MacinJosh Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Man, I just looked at the coverage maps right around midnight and didn't see anything. Glad to know they are acknowledging Spark coverage. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk Edit: Vegas isn't showing Spark for me at all.

amcferrin90 Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Hate to be negative but it looks a little false to me. The map should be cautioned with YMMV and "artist's rendering". :/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lilotimz Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I checked after midnight and it wasn't showing any yellow, so they must have been too premature there. I checked at around 1:40AM and it was yellow. Not anymore now but it's certain that it'll be announced in the next one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gusherb Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 I just checked the map for Northwest Indiana and the coverage it shows is accurate with what's actually deployed. For the first time in two years the right hand is in coordination with the left! (the new coverage just went live and they updated the map promptly thereafter) I also got my first above 50 Mbps speedtest from an 8T8R site just yesterday. and for the first time in two years I proudly recommended Sprint to someone! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WiWavelength Posted October 28, 2014 Share Posted October 28, 2014 Now they only need to make it bigger. That is all. There are plenty of devices, herbal remedies, and pills available for that. AJ 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
