I think this successfully shows the difference in the amount of spectrum sprint has compared to....everyone else.
I would like to see a map like that excluding the 2.5 GHz spectrum. Realistically we know that Sprint will only be deploying band 41 in urban areas since that's where it's needed. In any case, the maps there make it hard to realistically compare AT&T/Verizon/Sprint in the non-urban areas since they're counting band 41 almost everywhere for Sprint.

FCC ID: IHDT6QC1
Wrist watch supporting Bluetooth and WiFi (802.11b/g/n) in 2.4 GHz band
Sadly no interesting surprises found in the test reports so far.

A new Motorola device just showed up on the FCC's website today:
FCC ID: IHDT56PJ4
Frequency bands: 800 MHz, 850 MHz, 1900 MHz
CDMA, CDMA 1X, EV-DO (no LTE)
Dimensions: Approximately 65.44 mm x 124.45 mm
These specifications line up with a Moto E destined for Sprint's network.

Does anyone know if the $15 fee is still being waived for upgrades from last year? i know Sprint originally said it was for a limited time, but i never saw an end date for it.
I believe it's still being waived. I had the same question when I signed up 2 months ago, but they waived it. I'm not 100% sure of the cut-off date for your phone purchase. My phone purchase was June 2012 so the 2 year agreement was nearly complete at the time.
And to answer the OP's question: Here's my bill for 1 line:
Framily plan w/ 1 GB: $25.00
Sprint surcharges: $3.03
Government taxes & fees: $2.32 (Minnesota)
Total: $30.35

In my opinion a tablet can't fully replace a laptop unless you only use your laptop for web browsing and media consumption.
I have a netbook and a tablet, and whenever I need to do anything requiring a fair amount of typing or quick multitasking involving copying/pasting stuff, I switch to my netbook. But if I'm just watching videos, playing games, or browsing some web sites, the tablet is great.

Your thread title is misleading. There is no evidence to indicate that Apple and Google are actively eyeing Sprint for a buyout. The article is mainly speculation on why the author believes it's possible/viable for Apple/Google to get into the industry with a Sprint buyout.

Thanks. I looked at the user manual there, and I didn't see any mention of a second microphone for noise cancelling purposes. Other previews have said that it does exist (as it does on the One X). I wonder if they didn't include this or if they just don't mention these things in user manuals.
-
I wonder why they don't seem too eager to give Motorola a chance? You know, that group they're paying $12.5 billion to acquire
-
Wow, I would be very surprised at that kind of move, but it is possible. People have been waiting since January for the Nexus, that would be a cruel joke. With the amount of customers that are off contract right now, I don't think they can afford to tick anyone off. Even if it means ticking off HTC.
Yeah, I'd be surprised too, and I certainly hope Sprint doesn't cancel it. But I can't help but wonder if history will repeat itself.. the similarities are almost eerie.
-
I wonder if Sprint will end up canceling the Galaxy Nexus launch altogether. Remember that this happened with the Nexus One and Evo 4G. The Nexus One had a lot of fans who were really excited about it finally coming to Sprint. Sprint said it was coming, did testing with it, etc, but ultimately backed out because they didn't want to take any attention away from the Evo 4G launch.
When Sprint revealed they were backing out before the Evo 4G launch, there was a lot of outcry from customers who wanted the Nexus One instead of the Evo 4G. The main reasons were the smaller size of the Nexus One being more appealing to some, and the fact that it was a Google device meant that it would get updates more quickly.

New tower that I don't see on your maps in Ham Lake, MN off of Lexington Ave NE (aka Cty. Hwy 17)

No new sites added in Madison, WI or Milwaukee, WI as far as I can tell. I also browsed around much of Wisconsin and didn't find any new sites.

no wimax bud.
I sincerely meant to write WiFi. Corrected.

Thanks for the writeup. So you didn't try to enable LTE on any of the phones which were set to 3G/WiFi only?

What time is the event?
5:30pm EDT - 7:30pm EDT
And it looks like I was wrong suspecting the original leak was a photoshop job. Oh well, I blame my false hope.
-
The OneS is not really out of scale there.....looks like many of the other photos in comparison b/w the OneS and OneX...the devices screens are different and easily to tell so in the photo, and the actual size of the device is not really much different...
See the photo here with the 3 series next to each other in real life...
The One S and One X differ in width (4.9mm) much more than height (3.46mm) based on the reported dimensions. So, using width as a guide, I compared the widths of the devices in the leaked photo:
One X: 180 pixels
One S: 173 pixels
So the One S is 3.8% more narrow than the One X in terms of pixels in the leaked photo.
However, we know the width specification already for these:
One X: 69.9 mm
One S: 65 mm
The One S is actually 7% more narrow than the One X. So I think it's fair to say that the leaked photo is out of scale. Maybe I overstated it when I said "severely" though.
-
Size is wrong? its the same as the OneX...
The One X is on the left, the One S is on the right (based on the T-Mobile branding), and the alleged Evo One is in the middle. The One S should be significantly smaller than the One X, but it isn't in the image.
-
The fact that the One S next to it is so severely out of scale in relation to the One X is an indication that this could be a photoshop job. It's not for certain of course, since HTC certainly could have gotten the scale wrong as well. But, for now I won't panic about this Evo One variant looking so much uglier than the other One devices until the event in New York tomorrow.
-
It sounds like sensationalist speculation to me

I agree with what you are saying and for the most part it is a superficial change, in either case though this phone will have the evo name somewhere in it. Other than the iphone the evo 4g is by far the most successful selling phone ever on sprint, so that name isn't going anywhere especially with the countless evo 4g's that are about to come off of contract.
Yeah, I know what you mean. On one hand, the Evo brand/name carries a lot of weight and marketability and it would be foolish to throw that away. On the other hand, HTC is losing to both Samsung and Apple who are successful with their simplified Galaxy and iPhone brands respectively. So they need to do something, but I'm sure they'd feel like they're shooting themselves in the foot if they didn't re-use "Evo".
-
My guess is that the rumors are false in the same way that all the Galaxy S3 rumors were.
I would definitely welcome the addition of a kickstand and microSD card support. However, wouldn't this go against HTC's new paradigm of simplifying their product line? That was the whole purpose of the HTC One series.
So now instead of having HTC Evo, HTC Thunderbolt, HTC Rezound, HTC Vivid, etc., we instead have HTC One V, HTC One S, HTC One X, HTC One XL, HTC Evo One, etc. And some carriers only get certain models. It doesn't seem different at all from before other than a superficial change in naming style. I think HTC is smarter than this, and I don't think these rumors are true.
-
More rumor material:
Today - Thursday, March 29, 11:14 AM Deutsche Bank makes a bullish call on Sprint (S +0.9%), adding the company to its Short-Term Buy List with a price target of $3. Analysts came back from a meeting with Sprint management with a clear vision of the company's priorities and growth targets.

Here is a version I cleaned up a little which might make comparisons easier against other maps:

This may be worth writing an article on and creating a graph.

I think that's a good idea.

Hmm, I'll accept that I might be wrong about that. But, why? From an engineering perspective that makes zero sense. What's the purpose of rural B41 deployment? The only reason I can think of is license protection.
