  1. Sprint’s ace in the hole Interesting write-up on how Brightstar gives Sprint and SoftBank unique advantages for device leasing over the competition.
  2. Very true. Good point there. There's an additional kicker here: This underlined part appears new. I don't recall that being part of the original offer.
  3. Sprint Listened to DIRECTV Customers: Adding More High-Speed Data Options to Free Service Offer It's great to see Sprint responding to what customers want so quickly. Customers who already signed up for the offer are eligible for these additional data options as well, and can call Customer Care to request them.
  4. I really hope the four carriers can get their act together on this soon. It's a shame this has dragged on so long. Hopefully the DAS includes Band 41 for Sprint. The Current State vs. The History (For immediate release: February 27, 2009)
  5. Some more big news today: Mayor Emanuel and Sprint Announce More Than 1,000 New Jobs and Investment of Nearly $150 Million to Chicago by the End of 2016 And the Pope didn't even have to go!
  6. This info was tucked into the Preparing for Pope Francis Blog Post (By Scott Santi, Regional Vice President, Network). Yay!
  7. Some interesting info in this Blog Post on how Sprint is preparing its network for the Pope's visit: Preparing for Pope Francis (By Scott Santi, Regional Vice President, Network) Sprint's network improvements are really paying off!
  8. The Woman Behind Sprint's Chicago Shakeup Some good info in this article about Sprint's Chicago Market and Management Model Experiment. They were at Lollapooloza too. Here's a tidbit from a while back about local improvements: Good tidbits in there about Marcelo's management style too! Thoughts?
  9. How will things work when Sprint enables VoLTE? They'll still have to broadcast CDMA for some time right? When it's finally shut down, they can broadcast at higher settings?
  10. Get this man some B41 with 2x20 MHz CA Stat.... Upon further review... CA would be only marginally helpful for your M8 because your device doesn't support it (It would however benefit from the network effect of other devices using CA) .... Is an M9 (which supports it) in your future?
  11. Sprint also previously offered a free year of service if you added a line as one of the Loyalty Service Benefits.
  12. T-Mobile joins CCA's data roaming hub to expand reciprocal roaming deals with smaller carriers Didn't see this coming...
  13. FCC gives Sprint go-ahead to upgrade 800 MHz network in Portland metro area Some big news for Portland Metro Customers! Any good BBQ in Portland?
  14. It's also due to pricing. An Unlimited Plan on T-Mobile is $80/month vs. $60/month on Sprint (and $50/month for those "iPhone for Life" people as part of the iPhone 6 launch).
  15. Yes, but isn't SoftBank creating vehicles to offload that debt from Sprint's Balance Sheet?
  16. Right. It sounds like something recently changed with what SoftBank was willing to cover. I think he cared about speeds, but not as much as making sure the people would be able to complete a phone call or send a text. Voice/Text complaints probably registered the highest on why people were leaving. Sprint has solid performance rankings on both now, so data is the next piece of the puzzle to solve.
  17. Exciting times at Sprint, that's for sure. Hopefully Apple adopts this quickly enough for it to make it to the iPhone 7 feature set. Have you considered doing iPhone Forever?
  18. Indeed they do, and it's made a real difference from what I've heard. They should also try to put a DAS in MCI as well, if there isn't one already there. They do come out ahead of AT&T for data! (Report)
  19. None, from what I can tell so far... but these deals are kept so hush hush.... The T-Mobile free year of Netflix giveaway surprised everyone except for a select few I'm sure.
