    There is no video"On the sidelines of the DLD conference in Munich Germany"

    I think TMus still has better marketing than sprint. I don't even know what sprint's marketing message is. Uncarrier is brilliant because it's understandable and extensible. I guess sprints message should somehow revolve around their 2.5ghz but until it's fully deployed they're sticking to "cut your bill in half"

    Apparently Samsung devices are best for service mode type operations. So note 4

    Predictions for AWS (not mine) from the up above site. I disagree with NYC. Why would vzw buy a 10mhz non contiguous with rest of spectrum? It makes more sense for tmus to buy to combine to create a 10x10 aws3 carrier. I can't see vzw wasting a carrier card on 10mhz when it already has 40mhz? in pcs and 40mhz in aws1

    In non rural, when they need it? I THINK almost all phones they sell on their site is volte except for iPhone 5s, 5c so they still need it for voice. Unless their rootmetrics speed suffers I can't imagine why they'd not keep h+42 pcs since pretty much all phones support it worldwide.

    Same site, someone's blog has aws3 predictions.http://specmap.sequence-omega.net/blog/
  8. lou99/maximus1987
    They're gonna keep h+42 in pcs for m2m, older phones, international roaming, maybe wearables. Unless they bought the g block to make 20x20 + 10x10, my guess is they trade 5x5 AWS for pcs once AWS h+ is shutdown.

    Then mike sievert would leave - I remember Legere saying he convinced mike to join - and the whole thing collapses. In contrast, things would continue as normal if att CEO were fired

    DT boss said a merger is required for DT to make its money back, not necessarily for tmus to simply survive. DT bought voice stream for $50ish bil in 2000-ish dollars, got offered $39bil in 2011 dollars, got diluted to 67%. It's understandable they're pissed. In 2011 merkel called obama to plead to allow att to buy tmus. Now, BT is about to buy their 50% of EE so urgency to sell tmus has lessened. Legere and tim are not contradicting themselves: tmus can SURVIVE (Legere) but not soon return a dividend or share buyback (tim hoettges)

    When will metro CDMA be shutdown?
  12. lou99/maximus1987
    Good resource for TMO's spectra http://www.spectrumgateway.com/t-mobile-spectrum-holdings
  13. lou99/maximus1987
    And a better question is why are the even shutting down GSM if it's not taking up any LTE or Wcdma space?Seems like it's a luxury they can afford (to have 2g available)
  14. lou99/maximus1987
    What are they gonna use that 3mhz for when they kill gsm? Flexible umts?
  15. lou99/maximus1987
    How many MHz paired do they have for gsm today?
  16. lou99/maximus1987
    Vzw has like 10mhz paired not fdd in most of its markets. Att not sure. I think they'll get huge boost when they shutdown 2g dec 31 2016 and refarm to lte.
  17. lou99/maximus1987
    The 600 auction will have reserved an unreserved spectrum and the big boys will mostly bid for unreserved. If the 2 swept AWS it says they really needed midband. TMO has plenty of midband and sprint has plenty of 2.5ghz The "case" to be made is irrelevant. A republican fcc will approve merger no matter what happens while a democratic one will deny the merger no matter what. In 2017, first opportunity for a merger, will sprint be weaker than tmobile was post att merger? No. So there won't be a case to be made that "we're just too weak, we need to buy TMO please let us"
  18. lou99/maximus1987
    They sure are and those support Hspa 1900 which will NOT be shutdown. They've been selling Hspa 1900 handsets since at least as far back as jan 2012 see samsung blaze. And after they implement wcdma+ the Hspa 1900 network will be able to handle even more data.
  19. lou99/maximus1987
    If att offers lte tgere why not move to cricket?
  20. lou99/maximus1987
    Already being discussed in TMO thread. DT will say anything to get fcc at allow softbank to buy their TMO stake.
  21. lou99/maximus1987
    Analysts saying tmobile spent less than $4bil Remember TMO has 5x5 or even 10x10 AWS Hspa. Once that's shutdown they'll have more lte AWS.
  22. lou99/maximus1987
    Anyone have insight into the CDMA shutdown dates? What's left? NYC, Michigan, ?
  23. lou99/maximus1987
    That's a max not a min so could be sooner.
  24. lou99/maximus1987
    I was talking about sprint saying CAPEX will be lowered for 2015 because they found savings. Even if they found savings, they should go full bore with spark. This semi proves they're throttling their deployment based on their financials.
  25. lou99/maximus1987
    They're slowing down spark deployments even though the faster they get spark done, the faster they'll make money. Is that supposed to make sense?
