  1. With new 8x8 Mimo antennas its supposed to have similar propagation characteristics of PCS, so it should help those who currently have the ability to receive a B25 signal achieve those crazy speeds if anything. But I could see how licensing reasons could also come into play.
  2. Its being rolled out in batches and its not just the software version. Update: Speak of the Devil! I got the update for the voice from any screen, Now I can do it from literally any screen, even works while playing music or video. Man, Google is unstoppable!
  3. This has been said repeatedly, but not true, in fact, a lot of users are finding 8t8r antenna's (Sprint B41) in the oddest places, urban and rural..
  4. I can reaffirm that. N5 in NYC is spectacular! Writing this from midtown Manhattan averaging about 25mbs on B41.
  5. Its because it can transfer data even at the fringe level, the typical B25 bars really don't correlate 1 to 1 with B41. Also, optimization is in full force! B41 is everywhere in NYC and its kicking ass. Also, we might have some 8t8r antennas (which will propagate just as well as B25) here and there.
  6. B41 by Allerton and Boston road in the bronx, super strong signal hit 60mb indoors. Must be a newly activated site, never had B41 in that location before.
  7. Crazy thing is, this site is not on the Clear maps @ all, so could this be consolidation of Clear and Sprint site? This site show up as a sprint site on the maps.
  8. Been meaning to post this shot for a while, near the 4 train on 176st in the bronx, am I looking at Sprint B41 or a standard Clear Huawai site? Signal was -55dBm on B25 and switched over to B41. But a -20dBm difference in signal strength and signal check detecting B41 leads me to believe its a Clear site. https://docs.google.com/file/d/0B9tPD5DtGverMFpfWVBybEJQWHpKOElyWHhMMmxERFZPRkp3/edit Excuse the shitty shot, Nexus 5 @ a distance.
  9. I'm sure Vince regretting slappin that B26 butt now, unless he doesn't, that's fine too...LOL!
  10. Band 25 & 26 maxes out @ 37.5mbs Band 41 is currently around the 80mbs range (will double later this year with carrier aggregation)
  11. Picked up B26 in Astoria, Queens. Near Steinway.
  12. ookla speedtest.net index, http://www.netindex.com/ Sprint is catching up at breakneck speeds!
  13. Since Sprint doesn't specify detailed information about what they consider top 100 markets, we could only speculate. But yeah, markets does not equal state. Regardless, it seems like the wording between 100 million POP and top 100 markets is causing some confusion. 100 POP is a lot more feasible in that short amount of time. Good to see they are moving quickly on 8t8r installs.
  14. There's 20 million people in my home state of NY, so I'm pretty sure 100 million would constitute well under the 100 top markets. http://simple.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_U.S._states_by_population Top 10 states are well over 100 million people.
  15. Are we confusing 100 markets and 100Million POP??? this is a quote by John Saw from a few months ago, "Sprint plans to expand Spark to 100 million POPs by the end of this year and roughly 100 markets by 2016"
  16. How is it that Legere and Tmobile shit all over Net Neutrality with there white listing apps, make it seem like a monumental event that everyone loves, and somehow Sprint's event, announcing a couple of positive things here and there seem unbelievably lame.
  17. No, its going on every single sprint site, it will be on the top 100 markets by the end of this year.
  18. You got confirmation from Tim and AJ, typically any one of them would suffice..lol
  19. This would allow another 5x5 on most markets?
  20. That's what I figured, am I right to assume this would not happen for a few years? Or maybe around the time Sprint tighten's up VOIP plans?
  21. Damn! I'm slackin! I completely forgot about Sensorly.
  22. For the B41 non-believers! Packed house, about 40k people. Awesome walk off HR win for the yanks!
