This is getting ridiculous. Even if dish gets Clearwire sprint will still own more than 50% of Clearwire

Do we needs crest's vote to have the transaction get approved? If not then I don't care what they say lol

I hope the new iPhone is triband. If not then I'm holding off until next year or the Gs5. My upgrade is not until 6/1/2014 and I hope lte on 800/2500 is is rolled out to major markets (NYC, DC metro area) by then

Maybe the vote got postponed so sprint can work up a better deal?

I have a strong feeling sprint and Dish are going to go through. I just think if sprint is interested in softbank I would think sprint would just tell dish they aren't interested. Maybe Softbank wants sprint to act like they are interested in Dish so dish can stop pursuing clearwire.

I just want Sprint/softbank/clearwire

If for any reason Sprint does choose Dish I'm definitely switching to tmobile

I just want to make sure, sprint has to accept Dish's offer right? Dish just can't buy sprint without its consent? I just want sprint + SoftBank to close so badly. The process has been going on for 7 months.

What does that mean? It was filed through sec today or the sec approved it?

"Clearwire today sent a letter to its shareholders regarding Sprint's take-over offer. Sprint offered to purchase the remaining 49% of Clearwire that it doesn't already own for $2.2 billion. The offer has met with stern disapproval from several large Clearwire shareholders. In today's letter, Clearwire explained that its board evaluated Sprint's offer thoroughly against various other options and concluded that Sprint's offer was not only a fair offer..."

Well Hesse did say they are constantly looking for more spectrum and with Sprint already buying USCC Midwest market, it just makes since to acquire the rest. But yes Sprint has to focus on its deal with SoftBank and Clearwire first and also the current spectrum deal it has with USCC.

Does the FCC plan on having another spectrum auction?

Do you think in time Sprint would acquire all of US cell? I mean they use the same frequencies and it will give sprint more 850 spectrum in rural areas

Sorry that I posted two pics twice lol

So I was roaming around in Hagerstown and I'm guessing they are testing their LTE sites now because I have been getting an LTE connection since 12:00 pm!

Long story short, the financial statements released today exceeded the analysts' expectations.

Ok that's what I thought. Should of bought some stock when it was $2.10 a share a few months ago

How did sprint stock go up to $4.05 a share today when they reported a loss of 1.4 billion? Am I missing anything?

I hope it continues to go up!

Its not 100% but LTW will be launching early September in Baltimore and Western Maryland (Hagerstown). Supposedly it was suppose to be launched in august but with the storms they are a month behind

VZW are seriously over burdened on some towers... sprint will face challenges like this as well... I have a hard time believing sprint will always offer unlimited...

I think once they have lte up and running (50+) markets I believe they will start data caps but until then I don't see them getting rid of unlimited data since they need the new suscribers. I'm sure when the iPhone 5 comes out sprint will have amazing suscriber growth since they will be the only carrier to offer an unlimited lte plan for the iPhone 5 and they will still be cheaper than their competition.

Lte is only at 25-30% completion so far. It will get better in time

Which markets do you think will be next? I'm hoping for DC and Bmore
