FWIW in my area I’m seeing slightly faster download speed around 20-60mbps (use to be 5-20) and huge increase in upload at 7-15mbps where it was .5 to 2 before). 

So does this mean Sprint customers should start roaming on Tmo if coverage is poor?

Sprint has gone back and forth with in-footprint roaming for many, many years.

it's been over a year since I annoyed folks here i mean posted here -- just curious how is service in CT these days?  

On what?

Didn't they say they would have 5G in 30 cities by the end of 2018 or some BS like that?

Maybe they should try under promising and over delivering instead of the normal over promise under deliver.

From that article, "In this scenario, Dish would provide some spectrum to T-Mobile and then T-Mo would give Dish access to capacity on its network for wireless service. This would enable Dish to offer cellphone service while also saving it some cash since it wouldn’t have to build a network from scratch."
Exactly what I have been saying for a while now. 600MHz and AWS-3 can be deployed right away, AWS-4 will be implemented as part of 5G deployment. Maybe they can convince Comcast to throw in their 600Mhz spectrum. 

Charlie ain’t no dope ha

This merger is now totally different from what was originally planned merging and creating a fourth carrier, giving up spectrum, at this point I sound like a broken record.  Son needs to give up and take the "L" and sell Sprint to someone that will actually spend the money and get Sprint back on its feet, if Sprint needs to file chapter 11 bankruptcy,  do stock offerings, sell portions of their network so be it this has become a clown show at this point.

If dish will be made to cough up all its spectrum that it's hogging then then Sprint will be in a better position

Sprint have enough spectrum but not enough cash.

Well right now I pay 29 dollars on Sprint and do those plans have high speed?

That’s the upload on 5G? Really?

Well that’s a crappy turn of events :-(

Hopefully just bad rumors

Did I read somewhere; that Tmo was willing to sell Metro?!?

Yeah that's what I thought. So Sprint either got screwed or got a deal they couldn't pass up. I wonder which.

Time for SoftBank to find some new banks... or it could find itself with a bankrupt asset.

Didn't Dish want Sprint around the same time Softbank got them? Seems like that would have been a better choice.

Marcelo moved to Japan a handful of months ago. I think he moved his whole family to Tokyo from what  I can see on his twitter feed. He ain't coming back to Overland Park ever again. The guy got a  big promotion as a Softbank executive for cutting so many expenses at Sprint. 

Good news everyone

 
The Justice Department is unlikely to approve a planned merger between T-Mobile and Sprint, The Wall Street Journal reported Tuesday.
Staffers from the Justice Department have reportedly told both carriers that the deal may not be approved under its current structure, the Journal reported, citing people familiar with the matter.
 

Trump tweets are somewhat meaningless to most outcomes, but, to me it signifies a trend of moving towards a future where deploying the next new networks will be met with less red tape.

How long (realistically) before Arkansas is completed?

T-Mobile's rates have risen to almost Verizon/AT&T levels so him promising they will not rise is a rather empty promise.

Not sure it makes any difference at this stage ....
