  1. The 12/2 date is being repeated on good and evo. http://www.pocketables.com/2012/11/sprint-says-to-expect-news-on-jelly-bean-for-htc-evo-4g-lte-any-day-now.html
  2. Consumer reports is a joke. There are so many contridictions in that article it is almost humorous.
  3. This really pains me to say it BUT my mother just got a GS3 and I played with it for awhile and i was impressed.
  4. Sprint(like very other carrier) has determined how high the average data usage can be and still turn a profit. In the case of Verizon and AT&T they made that determination and figured out how much their network could handle. When you cross the line in either profitability or capacity then you see what the big two have done. That should be the biggest argument for the individual sprint user to offload when possible. Any other behavior indicates that you either don't care if the price goes up or you are willing to change carriers multiple times.
  5. Unbelievable that we are still seeing the mine first comments. I have always agreed that the wireless carriers are cads and that's why they have poor customer service scores. Now I have to question if it is due to the unrealistic expectations of the customers.
  6. This morning I travelled up six forks road to 540 in search of an LTE signal. No dice. I made sure to toggle my airplane mode and wait a few minutes. Did they shut it down?

    Nexus 7

    Want to make me an offer? I checked Amazon and they are way over priced. There are a couple on Ebay that are still early in the bidding process but I hesitate to get one off of there.

    Nexus 7

    Anybody know where I can still get a 8 gb Nexus7?
  9. There is a tower right across the street from Rex hospital at Blue Ridge and Macon Pond Road. I suspect that the backhaul is in place there. i have not tested it during the day but at night I usually get over 2 mbps. It also has a history of being a solid wiimax performer if that means anything. Net monitor shows 30 298.
  10. Ordered mine already. I'll post up when/if I receive it. http://www.movaluate...fc-tag-giveaway
  11. Any word of the HTC Butterfly coming to Sprint?
  12. We should count ourselves lucky that's all we got!
  13. That would be a pretty bogus reason IMO. The One X is only available on AT&T and Most would consider the EVOLTE the better phone. If the update is ready then they should just release it.
  14. Personaly I think if they wanted to go that route it would have been with Sprint. More likely than not they will sign a deal for somebody to provide wireless for them to bundle with their home internet service. Running their own cellular system would create two issues for them. The first would be disgruntled customers trolling the internets and smearing Googles name. The second would be creating animosity with the cellular providors. Would they be willing to sell a product from a competitor?
  15. Yeah. I'm kind of surprised that it is showing up in North Raleigh before other areas. The list of areas to be done before the year was not trending that way.
  16. LTE won't happen without ehrpd. So its a small but significant step. Hey, I'll take what I can get nowadays!
  17. Sprint has some cows in manhattan. Would be interesting to find out where and how much taffic they can handle.
  18. But you cant quantify the amount of indirect revenue. As long as it is not a "home market" then roaming should suffice. If you make it a home market(ie: no roaming, sprint stores) then you would have direct revenue that would allow you to justify either staying or leaving. But who wants to take that risk especially in a less than dense market?
  19. Just starve them out. Sprint/Softbank can pursue the same strategy that T-Mobile is pursuing with much better results. T-Mobile undercutting Sprint only affects Sprint. Sprint undercutting T-Mobile affects everybody.
  20. I have found it in the NC state area, down town, near the PNC Center, Garner and Clayton as recently as yesterday. Looks like its back to EVDO today.
