Comcast getting ready to launch wireless service?
dnicekid replied to bigsnake49's topic in General Topics
How? Don't you need 4 lines to get $45 price? -
With all do respect it seems like you're in a dream. I would love a rebrand and so would most. Financially it's not a few thousand, its millions. The worst part is the wireless industry is so aggressive the negative press would absolutely slaughter sprint. Can't you hear JL and everyone saying "you can change the name but the network is the same" I fully agree at some point sprint needs a rebrand but that can't some until the network is in a much better position it's just money wasted that could have been put somewhere more useful. As mentioned early sprint needs to advertise more where the network is strong, increase advertising in areas as the network gets better. --- meaningful advertising directed at that specific local market... As in Sprint has the fastest speed/coverage etc here in this specific market vs whoever was the top. --- But I do agree with your last part about the domino effect

I wouldn't even waste the money on a rebrand. It would get slaughtered. The press and critics would say same people same network quality as yesterday and don't fall for a new name. Once the network gets to s certain point with b41 and ca and so forth then I would be all for it. Only way to rebrand now and sell it is another company merging or buying sprint.

On the other site it says hands on the S8 the infinite phone...something like that

Wow!! -
Lol Tmo won??? Masa won he has been trying to offload sprint since he was denied buying Tmo. Vzw and the unlimited plan is like a nail in the coffin for a merger.... Or it's vzw opening up Pandora's box with a merger. ~130 mil subs ridiculous amount of spectrum converting sprint to gsm Not so sure vzw and att want that

I did see some tweet by Marcelo but it was simply "corny" at best. As I said before vzw could have timed the release differently and it probably would have crushed sprint/Tmo if this was tied in with the new samsung release as a promo. Most people are stuck paying for phones and won't switch I do love the idea and hopefully sprint comes back with the "framily" pricing as that would be the equivalent @45 a line. I can't wait to see how this turns out

What's funny is how many die hard Tmo/sprint people are ready to jump. That shows there is no loyalty in this business and customers will go for the best "value" regardless. I don't see this being that big of a deal for sprint -they will tweak their plans. The biggest impact will be felt by Tmo/att. A lot of Tmo customers came from vzw and will jump back at these prices as soon as the new samsung comes out. Att hasn't done anything recently so I am guessing they heard about this on their private chat lines which would explain why they haven't really changed pricing and have done nothing for retentions. Now att will play the cards they have been sitting on whether it's publicly or through retentions. All in all I don't see this as a big deal most people switch when a new phone comes out and there aren't many phones out now to make someone want to switch and stick with that phone for 2 years. I would be more excited if they did this at the time of the new samsung s8 or iPhone8. It's definitely a game changer but I think they did it a little early. This will be an interesting week nonetheless. I do believe this will show us sprints future plans. It almost seems to easy. Sprint and Tmos secret collaboration of lowering prices until the big 2 respond drastically then running to the Feds saying we can't survive without each other. Hmmmmm
