  1. Direct connect was about the only thing Nextel had going. Durable handsets as well I guess. It was working until sprint put Nextel out to pasture Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
  2. It would be a good selling point if all the sprint phones were able to run that. Like you say though, they don't seem to care about promoting it. Sent from my Galaxy Nexus using Tapatalk
  3. Couldn't agree more. There was some analysis that Sprint could revisit the MetroPCS deal if their stock price went up, that opportunity is less likely to happen now. Sprint stock hasn't dropped too far though, about 6% currently. It's a shame that someone with very little insight can manipulate stock like this. Sprint is being aggressive, they know that they need to be aggressive to compete, and they didn't need bankruptcy to learn that lesson. Now if Clearwire would get more aggressive instead of relying on Sprint handouts.
  4. I hope they are wrong on that, but the source article also says that it is A9 based. But it also says that it doesn't include an integrated baseband. This could be 2 different stories that were erroneously linked.
  5. I went to the article on WSJ and there is a hilarious comment of a guy ripping Moffet apart
  6. Nice catch, I saw a similar article on yahoo so I didn't even pay attention to the initial quote.
  7. Clearwire needs to cut the cord with Sprint a little. As you said, they need to expand. If they build out a large network, they will attract customers, but they need capital to expand, and they need investors for capital...
  8. There was another article on Engadget that mentioned that they would be making their own GPU, but there is not really any specifics. http://www.engadget.com/2012/02/23/samsung-demos-new-32nm-quad-core-exynos-ahead-of-mwc/
  9. You're in for the long haul now huh? If they can make it through NV, I think your investment is sound.
  10. On one hand, you hear people ask how they can get people off 3G and onto 4G for increased efficiency and reduced operating cost. Then this clown says that moving iPhone traffic onto 4G will be traumatic for Sprint...
  11. He may be speaking to the fact that AT&T is announcing markets left and right whereas Sprint has not officially announced much of anything. If it wasn't for S4GRU.com, there would be virtually nothing out there on how Sprint is doing, there would be no dates for devices, and they would look like they were floundering. I think Sprint stock will tumble for now, then once they start announcing completion of markets, it will come back up. This downgrade is not good in the short-term for cash flow. Hopefully Hesse has a rabbit to pull out of his hat because investers may start calling for his head if this continues.
  12. It looks like the Jet will best the GNex with a higher performance processor and gorilla glass 2. GNex doesn't have expandable memory, but I don't know if the Jet will either, rumor says no. The battery in the GNex is removable, and the Jet is rumored to not be removable. HTC is supposed to be putting really nice cameras in their One line where the GNex is a good camera, but not elite. There always seem to be plenty of developers for HTC devices, so you can't really give either platform a nod on the custom ROM dept. Then it depends on how much value you put on the design of the handset, Sense and Beats Audio. Either phone is going to be really good. It partially depends on if you want 2 extra months with a new handset.
  13. That will surely push the Galaxy SIII to the front of everyone's wish list. If they follow the rumors that they will allow you to bypass touchwiz, and also put a big removable battery in there and allow microSD expansion... There might be a legit threat to iPhone's market share. Edit: Sorry, I admit that was uncalled for.
  14. Saw this today. This might depress their price further. It will be a cheap time to buy, but losing any more value off of their share price will hurt their NV project. http://finance.yahoo.com/news/sprint-downgraded-underperform-market-perform-110656767.html
