  1. As much as i hate coming to Samsungs defense, it may just be that most people upgraded to the S4 last year. Its really hard to sell 50 million plus copies year over year.
  2. The issues I am seeing in the reviews are software related in my opinion. Personally I am not worried about it.
  3. Anybody see a good case holster combo yet?
  4. Placed my reservation at Best Buy today. Have to say I was impressed when the sales lady asked if I was looking for the M8.
  5. Going to wait until I can get it from best buy so I can get my $50 off. Yup, I'm cheap!
  6. If the Big Two are allowed to dominate the 600 mhz spectrum then I fear that a merger would not be up to the task of countering the big two.
  7. I think you are getting the Grand Cherokee and the Cherokee confused. The new Cherokee gets 31 mpg on the highway and is a smaller vehicle than the Grand Cherokee. http://www.jeep.com/en/2014/cherokee/#model=limited&color=deep-cherry-red
  8. Not knowing what your budget or size requirements are I would recommend the new Jeep Cherokee. It has a decent amount of room, great gas mileage and excellent AWD capability for less than 30 k.
  9. As far as i know any debt on Sprints balance sheets before the buyout got transferred onto Softbanks ledgers. In any case debt is debt. It is either going to affect the parent company or the subsidiary.
  10. On paper yes. In reality not really. For instance, what happens when the new company needs to expand the network but they do not have the money to do so. Will Softbank be able to under write the expansion? I can not understate just how concerned I am about Softbanks debt load, favorable monetary exchange or not.
  11. This is the argument for every merger/buy out ever known. Even though these savings through efficiency do not materialize a significant amount of the time it is still a valid and attractive argument. My concern lays in the additional debt that would be created through this marriage. How many years would it take to amortize the new debt and is it workable? Finally, I still have concerns about being able to maintain the subscriber base. A failure here would compound the debt issue.
  12. Good. That means we wont hear you complain about how much your e-penis costs.
  13. This is the problem I have and why I like Roberts idea of farming over Softbank employees. IIRC 800 mhz is just a trip to the tower and swapping some cards. There is no reason that Sprint cannot get 800 mhz to every NV upgraded tower. 150 million pops is really undershooting what is reasonably possible.
  14. It took Verizon 3-4 years to complete the LTE overlay. Pretty safe bet that some of those rural back haul orders went in years ago.

    HTC EVO 4G LTE

    Has anybody done a screen replacement on this phone?
  16. I'm surprised there is no pre order yet.
  17. Exactly my point. Sprint really is not that far away from AT&T in terms of coverage. I stand by the statement that the two networks are comparable.
  18. Results may vary. No one argues that Sprints coverage in the mid west is sparse at best. However, I lived in Columbus MS and drove many miles in MS, LA and eastern AR without any issues unless I was really in the sticks.
  19. I think excluding roaming is fair since it can be very variable. Although it would be interesting to know if the average consumer even knows when and what roaming is.
  20. Lets not get into the lte hspa 3g 1x edge argument. Lets just take coverage as coverage.
