I have a suspicion that some of the issues before Claure came in were with the outside companies doing the build out of the network.
If these outside companies are held to deadlines things may improve. In speaking to tower linemen in my area they say that Tmobile is the most insistent on having network tower issues addressed right away, where Sprint doesn't seem to push or care as much.
I think Mr. Claure obviously has a deeper understanding of the handset end of the business, but because handsets run on carrier networks, and Brightstar is in more than 130 countries, he has a very deep knowledge of carrier network deployment and buildout.
