You know you will hear it first on S4GRU.com. Stay tuned...
We plan to announce all the cities that will begin deployment in 2012. By deduction, you will then know if you are in a 2013 market. From the data I have, I cannot tell if York is in Sprint's Central Pennsylvania market or the Philadelphia Metro market. It appears pretty close to the transition. But stay tuned to S4GRU.com for the latest.
We will continue to run announcements two to three times per week about cities Sprint will begin to deploy NV in 2012. Stay tuned to S4GRU.com to see if Tulsa pops up in one of those announcements!
I agree to your points to some extent. But when NV starts deploying, relief will start to occur in the areas where it has been deployed, immediately. It will be a site by site, cluster by cluster deployment. So even though it will likely take 9 to 10 months to complete the NYC market from start to finish, there will be considerable improvement occurring every month along the way. It's possible that the areas where you hang will be one of the first areas. We provided a cluster by cluster deployment schedule on Chicago and we hope to do the same for NYC. Stay tuned to S4GRU.com for the latest.
In the article above it says that the Boston market largely covers the entire state of Massachusetts. To the north, Sprint has the combined Vermont/New Hampshire/Maine market, to the south there is the Providence and Northern Connecticut market. And to the west there is the Upstate New York East market. In CT, there are two markets, Northern Connecticut and Southern Connecticut. Each market will be announced separately and are subject to different deployment dates.
