  1. AT&T wouldn't be half the carrier they are now without 3 1/2 years of iPhone exclusivity. Verizon would have stayed number 1 all the way through, and we would be stuck with Windows Mobile and Blackberry. T-Mobile would have been out the door and Sprint would be clinging for dear life if not already dead. If Apple had embraced IEEE standards, WiMAX could have been king of "4G". Frankly though, I don't think Apple is in bed with wireless operators, but more like they control them, that's why there wasn't a WiMAX equipped iPhone. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  2. Case. Good thing too because I've dropped it a few times already. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  3. Would WiMAX even be around if Apple hadn't launched the iPhone? I almost think it would have been delayed another couple years too. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  4. I think LTE would 2-4 years later than it is Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  5. Control your finger there turbo. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  6. AJ is being rational. Look what the iPhone did to AT&T's network, and the 4S did to Sprint. Not to mention the industry in general. The iPhone's popularity is the biggest nightmare for networks that can't handle the traffic. Even I admit the iPhone has been detrimental in ways. Nothing is flawless in technology. NOTHING! And that's fortunate reality. When technology becomes flawless, then the machines will rule the world and we will be their slaves. We don't ever want to get to that point.

  7. Nope. Have really good data service in Lindsay, CA tonight. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  8. I think there were on AT&T, and when 2 yr contracts are done away with there, they are in for a big surprise! Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  9. Do it! Get a backup! Believe me, it's a lifesaver! Trust me on that one. And I don't mind installing betas on my computer since I have Time Machine running, but I just don't have time to mess around with it. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  10. iOS 8.1.1 breaks the jailbreak! http://www.redmondpie.com/ios-8.1.1-patches-jailbreak-exploits-used-in-pangu8/ Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  11. Nice! I may look into doing that, but we will see. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  12. Apparently, from what I could catch from their conversation, they were paying the same price per month at their old carrier with subsidy, so they decided not to switch. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  13. Last week I went to Sprint for something and there was a family of 4 porting in. As soon as they found out they had to pay installment billing for their phones, they had a fit and walked out. It's a shame too. In the end, people really don't understand and never will until subsidized pricing is gone forever. Then hopefully we will finally have lower pricing on flagship phones, but that may take time to happen. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  14. It's hard to say. Last we heard, Sprint and Motorola stated that the 2014 Moto X won't be coming to Sprint. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  15. I don't know if that's how the subsidy model started. And what you are saying is cell service stores and cell phone hardware stores? Is that how it makes it more competitive? Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  16. Hey, it's closer to reality at least. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  17. No CDMA 1x/EVDO. International version of the Nexus 9 tablet. Hopefully the North American version shows up soon. I found it last night on the FCC OET site. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  18. Has anyone considered that Sprint could start giving discounts on cost of phone to get people to sign up? Negotiable phone prices can happen as the next big way for Sprint and T-Mobile to compete. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  19. Never heard of it, so I think it's just a southern thing. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  20. $840?! Are they sure people will pay that? For that price it should have had 64GB of built in memory! Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  21. Historically, 10.11 will be the last OS for that Mac, but since some 2007 Macs got 10.10, I think 10.12 will be the last for the 2009 MBP's. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  22. Now we need to know how it works with Clear Band 41 and Sprint Band 41. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  23. I can't tell, Field Test won't load when on 3G or 1x about 95% of the time. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  24. Sounds like the imore forums. Everyone is blaming the carriers for the delay, and not the overwhelming demand that Apple didn't realize was on the way. Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
  25. Aye aye Admin AJ! Sent from Josh's iPhone 6+ using Tapatalk
