true, but i think the car information sharing will pale in comparison to streaming HD video but it will be an additional device and additional data usage all the same.

I own the plus and love the screen size, but i have large hands. My fiance has the 6 (not the plus) and its perfect for her smaller hands, both of us laugh when ever we see a 5s... or even a 4s and ask how we could ever even tolerate that little screen. but to each their own, what is perfect for me could seem crazy to you. If apple thinks they can sell millions of 4 inch phones then they will make one.

didn't realize sprint was 64kbps after high speed was used up, that is painful. atleast you could stream music if it was 128kbps.

speed will still be important in the future and additional capacity will help provide and maintain that speed. as data demands grow other carries will need to drastically increase site density due to spectrum constraints, most likely with small cells. of course wireless data usage growth will begin to slow and stagnate in the coming years on a percentage basis based on the law of large numbers, a reasonable person can only use so much data on a phone. The next big ramp up in data usage will be when driver less cars begin to roll out in the millions. people will go from driving, focusing on driving to riding and watching tv/netflixs/youtube so on... on their phones.

honest answer, stocks don't always trade in line with the value of it's assets less debt. The market isn't always right, that is where you, or I can step in buy shares and make some money. I use the term value loosely because its impossible to say exactly how much money sprint's spectrum is worth on its own. look at a company like yahoo, it's market cap is almost less than the value of it's shares of Alibaba. Is yahoo by it's self worthless? Because right now yahoo is trading like its core business is worth less than $0. yahoo market cap 28.82, current approximate Alibaba stake $30 billion.

It was more a joke, tower and billboard lease payments can be big money. as they say location location location. some good info on the topic. http://www.cell-tower-leases.com/Cell-Tower-Lease-Rates.html

no way, I deal with more than enough ads on a daily basis In fact in almost all cases i will not pay for anything that also jams adds in my face... Im looking at you charter, Time Warner and Comcast! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=M0sAVtOt2wA

well shoot, i have a back yard, i want a macro site, i would even settle for a small cell... I will even waive my rental fee for a year or two in exchange for free service for me and my family for life!

yeah yeah that att "unlimited" is a very attractive offer for u-verse and direct tv customers especialy if you have 3 or more lines... i think this is the first step in zero ratting u-verse and direct tv app for all wireless customers.

I think he will increase rather than decrease his investment, I think he underestimated the challenge. He obviously underestimated the regulatory environment of the united states, that's why the planned t mobile acquisition stalled out so quickly. I believe with the proper investment and management sprint can become the #1 or #2 network in the country, it wont be an easy goal to hit as the competition definitely is not sitting still, but they certainly have the spectrum resources. They just need to execute, and that is something that i feel sprint has not done, in many many many years at least not at the same level as the competition. But the fight is not over, its only just begun.

as crazy as it sounds i think the key to sprint, or any stock right now is oil rebounding to the $35-$40 range (currently $26.79). why? the oil producers are loaded with debt (much like sprint/many other companies) this debt was cheap and easy to obtain before the federal reserve raised rates. Now the debt market is in danger, extreme danger, because companies with large debts are finding it very difficult to refinance, oil companies are facing the most challenges due to the extreme drop in the price of oil, but all debt heavy companies are being punished. The fall in debt ridden companies is causing the sell off in the broader market so even cash rich companies are being taken down. In my opinion oil needs to rebound so the debt heavy oil companies don't run the risk of default, and the fed making a statement that its done tightening, at least for this year would be very helpful. Drill baby Drill they said, now look what we have, its nice at the pump but if your 401K loses %40 this year it doesn't really make a difference does it?

tell your buddy to be careful, unless he is on an unlimited plan those speed tests burn tons of data...

interesting that the verge sees a time when home internet can be provided via wireless networks, i don't really see that as a possibility or even a need, other than very rural areas without access to wire line internet.

T-Mobile is relentless, also i wish when sprint did "all in" it would have included taxes and fees, for many people that "unexpected" extra is a turn off. it sounded like the perfect tax line, all in should have included everything.... not almost everything....

s so all sprint needs is some free money, and spectrum and they will be golden? sign me up for the free money!

true, he could say more than nothing, if he is going to maintain a twitter account it should be used to talk about sprint. and not how proud he is of the local sports teams. but that's just my opinion and honestly even if he posted something substantial and positive very few people in the investing community will make multi million dollar investments based on a tweet... No one who reads this board, or follow his twitter account has enough personal wealth to invest in any one stock, to significantly affect share price of a stock like sprint.

They are in whats known as a "quiet period" http://whatis.techtarget.com/definition/quiet-period The last quarter ended December 31st, so the quiet period started on that date, and will end when they make an official earnings announcement (most likely early February). Untill that time has passed any leaks, tweets or any relevant data to the companies fortunes (or mis fortunes) would be in violation of Securities Act of 1933 https://www.sec.gov/answers/quiet.htm. They can't just do what every they want... they have some rules to play by, if you listen to John's tweets and periscope videos he is careful not to disclose and real information during his "quiet period".

they are only really endanger of being de listed if the stock fall below $1 for an extended period, at that time they would most likely preform a reverse stock split, say 1 for 5, meaning you trade in 5 $1 shares for 1 $5 share and bam the stock is no longer endangered of being de listed. The problem sprint is facing is a huge debt load in a market where credit is drying up (money is harder/ more expensive to borrow). The turn around story is also in jeopardy, this could get much worse before it gets better.

yeah exactly I hope sprint doesn't get drown with government red tape! / : Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk

That's not sure a %100 though, i regularly can get 50-60 meg on my 6Plus (no CA). I would say if your phone is working well then it doesn't honestly matter, not much of a difference between 30 meg and 100 meg for most uses on a phone, even downloads since IOS is caped at 100 meg over cellular... I get that it is fun to check (i do all the time) but i don't expect apple to pay much attention to the field test app, they have many many other things to do all day.

That is awesome! my area (southern WI) has slowly been evolving like this, it seems tower by tower. nothing worse than being stuck on slow band 26 when you know your in range of band 25 (can see the tower a block away).

Im sure he will, he loves to bash sprint are every opportunity. That said that is an impressive download increase although i would rather the speed test be removed, feel free to talk about max peak speeds but the screen shot seems unnecessary in an official newsroom release. just my opinion.

in my area the map way over exaggerates (southern WI) i sometimes have 3g outdoors while deep in yellow , miles away from the nearest tower. Im not complaining i know how the network works and where i can expect lte, 3g, and where i can expect 1x... or less. they are aware of the lack of coverage especially on the south side of my town. I actually recommended an intersection in town that should have a tower, he laughed and said that's an area they are thinking of adding a tower (lots of sprint zone problem reports).... Its not a secret to the network team as to where the problem areas are, the coverage map is a different team, a marketing team, At the end of the day that is all the coverage maps is... marketing.
