  1. The tower at 370 and Ft Crook has boxes! Woot should cover my house. Pictures tomorrow.
  2. It's your money. Sprint has been the cheapest most consistent and friendly cell company I've ever worked with. I always felt cheated by Verizon. Verizon is the biggest, unquestionably has the largest lte network based on coverage. I live in Omaha. Sprint has taken a while but it is coming now. Towers are lit. It isn't the WiMax fiasco of a few years ago. I'm happy to stay with a company that is treating me well and not hiking my rates and hiding charges. Just my .02. If you "need" the speed and need it now than you probably are already on Verizon. Based on what I've seen on these forums Sprints network vision is real. It is the right way to fix their network and it is being put in place as we speak in Omaha. Why pay more when Sprint will only get better?
  3. That seems to make sense. As others have said at times my phone reported max bars which is odd since sensorly seems to be able to report signal strength much better. Anyway I'm still patiently waiting and am just happy to see something happening. Waiting years for the next big thing has been painful. I've enjoyed Sprints low prices though.
  4. And now I have 4g in my home again! good signal. I can't wait for them to leave it on!
  5. Bellevue here. I got some hits in Sensorly and my phone connected 4g for brief periods of time: Switched quickly and seemlessly back to 3g. Can't get 4g signal now inside my home. 3g is fast enough to play youtube video without caching.
  6. Can anyone tell me if this is a sprint tower? http://goo.gl/maps/oTgUO It doesn't seem to line up with their maps at https://network.sprint.com/NE/Omaha/ I did see someone working on it though.
  7. Just to add some more rumor to the fire: While upgrading to the HTC One I was having a conversation with a Sprint sales representative at an Omaha store. He said someone was recently in the store and claimed to be from out of town here to start construction on the towers. Otherwise he was pretty non-committal about anything happening soon. I lost my WiMax test tower access ( love the phone though ) so now I'm even more excited about LTE. Hopefully soon!
  8. Three towers close to the base are all along my favorite summer biking route. Wondering what I should look for in upgrade equipment? Anyone know any companies that would be doing the upgrades or if equipment would be visible overnight? I could take some pictures if anyone is interested.
  9. Can you detail your disappointment? I don't see much critical of the EVO LTE other than network doesn't exist.
  10. I'm one of those people. I want the One. The speakers are enough for me to sell my soul. There were 3 things shown this morning that made me say "I'd use that!". I can't wait to get my hands on it. As I consider why I want an sd card slot I figure I can get a micro-usb thumb drive. I don't mind the 32/64G sizes I think either would be plenty for me. Just want to be able to get personal files off the device quickly. I know why I want a removable battery. They wear out, freeze in cold weather, die, and just need to be replaced over time. Hopefully it isn't a huge task even if it isn't immediately available to remove. I don't mind voiding a warranty. I'll wait for some tear down guides to decide if I'm ok with this. I just want this phone. Hoping I can keep myself happy with the limitations.
