  1. 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.
  2. Deploying...no. Broadcasting, yes. However, if Clearwire wants to mitigate risk, it waits for FCC approval. If it doesn't get approved, its not the end of the world. They can aggregate smaller carriers together with LTE Advanced when it hits the street. But I can't think of any reasonable reason for them to deny Clearwire's request.

  5. You know, I hadn't given that much thought. But I do see some correlations now that you mention it. S4GRU is now mobile...posted via Forum Runner
  6. OK...I've found the setting. Administrator posts can be liked now.
  7. SECOND ROUND MARKETS (28): There is a lot of variability of when Second Round markets start, approx. between July 2012 and December 2012. Charlotte East Michigan Ft. Wayne/South Bend Indianapolis Jacksonville Long Island Memphis Miami/West Palm Minnesota Nashville New Orleans Norfolk Northern Jersey Orange County (California) Oregon/SW Washington Orlando Philadelphia Metro PR/VI Raleigh/Durham Riverside/San Bernardino San Diego Shentel South Bay Southern Connecticut South West Florida Tampa West Michigan (Grand Rapids/Lansing) West Washington (Seattle/Puget Sound) Updated as of Friday, March 6, 2015.
  8. We are announcing all 2012 markets over the next few weeks. Let's just say that my "Vision" for Phoenix is cloudy over the next several days.
  9. by Robert Herron Sprint 4G Rollout Updates Monday, February 20, 2012 - 1:33 AM MST OK, Sprint 4G Rollout Updates is prepared to name the second city that Sprint's Network Vision vendor Alcatel/Lucent is deploying during 2012...Boston, Massachusetts. Bean Town, and soon to be LTE Town for Sprint. On Friday, we announced that Sprint is working on Network Vision/LTE Deployment in the San Francisco Bay Market. And now we can tell you that the Sprint Boston market is also about to begin work. Sprint's Boston market is essentially the entire state of Massachusetts and includes 940 sites to be converted to Network Vision. Alcatel/Lucent is preparing for mobilization and work should begin soon. The entire market will take approximately 7 months to complete, wrapping up before years end. But in the interim, the market will be brought online one site at a time, tower by tower. So there will be some usable locations in Greater Bostonia by the time LTE devices start to be sold in the next few months. S4GRU currently does not have many more details about the rollout in Boston at this time. Hopefully in the not too distant future, we can provide a neighborhood by neighborhood analysis of this deployment like we have been able to do in Chicago. Sprint 4G Rollout Updates can bring you this information about 2012 deployment markets because we have received extensive Network Vision engineering information from inside sources. We have information on all of Sprint's 97 markets nationwide. With this information we are able to reasonably conclude how and when Sprint intends to deploy Network Vision and LTE in every market in the country. The information is not a neat and orderly list, showing markets in deployment order from 1 to 97. If it were only so easy! We will continue to scour through the data and gather deployment information for your use. It is our intent to provide at a minimum, all the Sprint markets that will likely begin Network Vision/LTE upgrades in 2012. And we intend to do so in a series of articles over the next few weeks. We will not likely announce communities slated for 2013, because the dates we hold for 2013 markets appear tentative and subject to change. With the many variables between now and 2013, Sprint could make significant shifts in deployment plans. Based on dynamic need change, funding, market permitting difficulties, etc. With the release of Boston today, that brings the total of Network Vision markets announced to nine. Atlanta, Dallas, Houston, San Antonio, Baltimore and Kansas City as announced by Sprint. Chicago, San Francisco and Boston announced by Sprint 4G Rollout Updates. Stay tuned to Sprint 4G Rollout Updates. On Wednesday we will be announcing another Network Vision/LTE market that Alcatel/Lucent will be working to bring online for Sprint in 2012.

Information about the source: The information for the Boston deployment and all of our Network Vision information has been obtained by several internal sources close to the Network Vision program who choose to remain anonymous. The documents will not be released to protect source anonymity. EDITED 3/5/2012: To include market map.
  10. OK...some late night humor. Here is a clip from Fox News' Sheppard Smith complaining about AT&T's bait and switch on his unlimited plan. He's angry, and it's pretty funny. Click on the image below to load. Thanks to Brian Jones for posting the link on our Facebook page.

  16. The speed upgrades listed on network.sprint.com are temporary band aid improvements in front of Network Vision. They are just additional T1 lines. Which don't add much for speed at sites that are already way over capacity. S4GRU is now mobile...posted via Forum Runner
  17. Most people wouldn't think of it from your perspective. They will just be happy that there is an accessory they can buy to extend their battery. But they are being duped. S4GRU is now mobile...posted via Forum Runner
