  1. Maybe they wanna encourage people to sign up for more expensive postpaid?
  2. The author is clueless. This is exact same thing tmobile does with postpaid plans: high speed bucket then get slowed down. Nothing new. The 8mbps is new and it's same policy as cricket.
  3. Exactly how much cheaper would sprints phones become? If this were a REAL issue then softbank would synchronize its phones and sprint phones to be identical. But they don't do this. Because they wouldn't save money.
  4. Because they bought a bunch of low band 3G spectrum and were able to affordably buildout everywhere. Then they bought all useful lte lowband spectrum which they … see the pattern?
  5. Band 10 will no be used. A new band will be created for aws1+aws3
  6. I have latest version of tapatalk can't do more than that. For example, Sweden is very left in taxation social attitudes welfare etc. so if Europe isn't even discussing telecom nationalization you gotta accept it's not gonna happen anytime soon.
  7. Maybe getting backhaul and deploying 2.5g would help with that customer leaving problem? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  8. Stringing up wires is not not the same as building multiple parallel roads. And if your idea is so doable then we'd see it done in at least one country. Like Belgium at least
  9. Is this analogous to the Australian nbn? Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  10. I'm referring to what braxton stated: 60k total sites and 50k FTTT though he probable meant backhaul that can support lte. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk
  11. For a group so against att vzw corporate interests, you sure are concerned with sprints corporate interests. Why aren't you concerned about your own pocketbook? Sprint softbank and son have plenty of accountants to worry about theirs
  12. Have you looked at what happens when a country goes from 4 to 3? Prices rise. Lookup 3 Austria orange. Prices rose. What guarantee do we have that the combined sprint tmobile will continue to be a maverick? Nothing. We'll see in a few months in Germany what's gonna happen to prices now that Telefonica Deutschland has purchased eplus
  13. Article is clear that $30k is prepayment for the $100k which will be eventually paid
  14. It'd be nice to know sprint customer breakdown by device type: tri-, dual-, single-band
  15. So the equipment is $40k but what's the extra $100k of construction costs? Then there's additional labor?!?
  16. Interestingly, the Macquarie analysts estimated that Sprint will spend around $40,000 in equipment and $30,000 in prepayment of around 30 percent of the $100,000 construction costs of small cells, which would result in $280 million in spending on small cells overall in 2015. The analysts said that spending would rise to $357 million in 2018. The analysts arrived at their forecast of $500 million per year by adding in the cost of labor and other fees.
