Yes. AJ

Doubtful. Outside of extreme climates, the issue is not one of external temperature. The issue is internal temperature. The equipment itself generates waste heat. That requires cooling. Metal is a good conductor for wicking away waste heat. A hut, on the other hand, insulates and contains that internal waste heat. As an experiment, try running an audio power amp 24/7 out in the open versus inside an insulated cooler. Which one needs the air conditioner? Ambient cooling could be passive or forced air -- it covers both bases. AJ

What air conditioning? Some of the Sprint base stations I have seen use ambient cooling. AJ

What I find interesting is that most Sprint base station equipment is relatively small in size and out in the open. At least in this area, AT&T still uses those air conditioned, composite material huts for nearly all sites, even for new build sites. Those huts cannot be as energy efficient, so I wonder why AT&T still uses them. Since AT&T (nee SBC) is the RBOC here, maybe they also run DSL nodes out of them. AJ

Well, summering in Duluth could bring new meaning to a "whiter shade of pale." AJ

You would still need spray on tan in order to "be golden." AJ

Not a reflection upon you but on the Android Central commenter, this is what makes most people bad scientists, bad politicians, bad consumers, just bad critical thinkers in general. Duluth could be the center of the universe. Or it could be the cold anus of Lake Superior. It does not matter. Sprint could shower Duluth with the greatest wireless technology. Or Sprint could neglect Duluth forever. Again, it does not matter. One sample does not a trend make. But that does not stop bad critical thinkers. They leap to sweeping generalizations based upon their limited, local observations. AJ

But, clearly, all of you have opted in for Nerd Alerts. AJ

Not quite. Certainly not from an, uh, AT&T user in Duluth. But they have permanent brain freeze in Duluth, so they may not be reliable witnesses. AJ

Yeah, I could hear the Superfans saying, "Hesse." But "Legere" just does not have that ring to it. AJ

Yeah, be sure to swallow or cram some cash before you expire. No, I kid, I kid. You do not need to bring money. Wireless service rates in heaven are based on karma. To illustrate, Randall Stephenson, for his skulduggery, and John Legere, for his disingenuousness, will be relegated to no data and only 30 min airtime per month on this... AJ

Yes, the Nextel antennalope have been repurposed to relay nationwide HD Voice. AJ

In yet another related announcement, T-Mobile has just signed a similar marketing arrangement with Victoria's Secret thongs -- for both women and men. It is very European. AJ

Aw, don't get your panties in a bunch. AJ

In a related announcement, VZW, to cater to its core subscribership, has inked pacts with Munsingwear and BVD. AJ

You already fixed it by going back in and adding the line breaks. The original copy and paste was, well, the Rosetta Stone. AJ

Holy wall of text, Batman. I feel like I am trying to read the Rosetta Stone AJ

After that needlessly lengthy quote, your gentleman and scholar titles have been revoked. AJ

No, Lil Jon. What?! Yeah! Okay! AJ

Oh, go back to staring at yourself in the mirrors on the ceiling. AJ

Glass half empty, Josh? Look at it this way. It could have been far worse. As some worried, Sprint could have declared Network Vision ready for the world and said, "Happy Connecting." So, this trivial announcement is, well, trivial. No big deal. Now, go fill your half empty glass. Have a drink. You will feel better. The Hotel California has pink champagne on ice. AJ

Oh, come on, people. You are too serious... AJ
