I have to say I've never experienced anything good on EDGE or GPRS with T-Mobile, but I've not traveled as widely as Robert with T-Mobile (mostly in the southeast). Certainly I've found that even roaming 1X with Verizon or ex-Alltel around here delivers a better experience. All that said there are places where Sprint is lagging T-Mobile and, as pointed out elsewhere, Sprint is going to lose significant EVDO roaming in the southeast when AT&T inevitably switches off CDMA next year in its former Alltel markets (they'd rather lose roaming revenue than help Sprint make its maps prettier) and maybe the equation will change a bit if Sprint doesn't take advantage of ex-Nextel sites and accelerate 800 deployment on GMOs to improve rural coverage. Waiting around for SouthernLINC to come through in 2017 isn't going to cut it.

C Spire, Ole Miss wire Vaught-Hemingway for WiFi
lordsutch replied to lordsutch's topic in General Topics
No. Technically the stadium is in the unincorporated part of Lafayette County, which is dry; even if SEC rules allowed alcohol sales, the university couldn't sell alcohol without a change in state law or annexation by the city of Oxford (the latter is unlikely because the city doesn't want several thousand potential additional voters who could influence a city council election). In practice... hard liquor is substantially easier to find in the stadium than a Mississippi State fan who is only "ringing responsibly" during the Egg Bowl. But the school only makes money off the soda mixer. Plus if there's a population of people who will shell out $5 for internet access, it's in the Vaught. The only poor people in the stadium are the players... -
I'm pretty sure they don't kick people off old plans. I have a friend with a feature phone who I think has been on the same $35/month plan (old enough that I think it doesn't even include roaming!) for over a decade, and he upgraded on contract last year. Anyway, this may be the plan I finally need to move off my Everything Data Share 1500 and save money... assuming I can find a cheap plan on a feature phone for my other line of service.

Sprint to enforce roaming data limits, send SMS notifications
lordsutch replied to Rocket87's topic in General Topics
If I had to guess it's one of those things that doesn't kick in for customers until your next billing cycle starts, to simplify the programming logic. -

I only stuck it out with Sprint in Blacksburg because I had two lines on my plan (one not in Blacksburg) and wasn't expecting to be there more than a year or so. I'd have probably bailed too (although probably not for nTelos - why reward them for failing to live up to their agreement with Sprint?).

Thought this might be of interest to some folks: http://www.olemisssports.com/sports/m-footbl/spec-rel/082014aaa.html Maybe C Spire will throw a bone to the customers of its RRPP partner Sprint too, and let us on their WiFi network free. Alas, I haven't been back in Oxford since the nearby tower went 4G live to see if Sprint's LTE network holds up in the stadium on gamedays. Sprint CDMA was always a complete disaster on Saturdays in the Grove and in the stadium too.
