  1. Here's a rendering of what it may look like if Apple goes with the 4" screen. http://www.bgr.com/2...l-release-date/
  2. Sprint pushing a software update to resolve GNex network problem. http://www.theverge.com/2012/5/1/2991439/sprint-galaxy-nexus-software-update-connectivity-issues
  3. Seems to be a good idea and it could take some of the air from AT&T since they used that as a differentiator for its service.
  4. I think Samsung has LTE support already built in, it was the chip-sets announced earlier in the year that still hadn't got it in before the device wnt to market, thus the EVO LTE geeting the S4. I agree about the quad- core. This chip will allow this device to do alot, but do we need a phone with "PC" like powers? I am looking forward to the multi-tasking feature.

Samsung's next Galaxy device, which will be officially announced soon, offers uncompromised performance and ground breaking multi-tasking features." http://news.cnet.com/8301-1001_3-57421616-92/samsung-announces-quad-core-chip-for-galaxy-s-phone/?tag=cnetRiver
  5. RIM is still in third place in the OS market and I'm disappointed that WP hasn't taken off yet. It looked good for a while, but as of now, it's losing momentum. If BBX 10 (QNX) is a moderate hit when it debuts, RIM will have a much easier time keeping its slot than MS and WP 8 still trying to make up ground. After test driving a Playbook, I like BBX more than WP.
  6. Not much info on this, but Sprint has publically commited that the Epic Touch and Nexus S (old news) is going to get the ICS treatment. Quote: "Sprint will begin to roll out Google's latest version of Android™, Ice Cream Sandwich, to our customers in 2012. Ice Cream Sandwich will be available via an over-the-air update to a variety of devices including Galaxy™ S II, Epic™ 4G Touch and Nexus S™ and other key products in our line-up." http://community.spr...stomers-in-2012
  7. The GNex is my fall back phone when I re-sign. I'm waiting until the 3rd to see what the GSlll looks like. I'm impressed with the speculated internals, now just waiting to see pics. If it's as good looking as the GNex, then that will be my next phone. I was considering the new EVO, but since its been redesigned and doesn't even come close to looking like the One X, I've scratched that off my list.
  8. It's the weekend, start typing!
  9. As mentioned, its a business decision to offer WiMax/4G to prepaid and increase revenue for Sprint and Clearwire (more so to keep Clearwire afloat IMO).
  10. I think they are, but I don't know if they will bite. Most of Verizon's spectrum its selling is in metropolitan areas so Sprint might pull the trigger in those areas where it's weak. Sprint is really hurting for spectrum in the upper mid-west/west and could expand its native coverage there.
  11. I don't understand why the carriers don't take advantage of this option. Sprint is already going to do it with data starting this year, so they may as well go all in to mitigate network traffic. This will be a reasonable option once VoLTE is instituted and the LTE pipeline starts to fill up.
  12. LS2 has a reprieve so they may be able to get back in the game. I give them credit, they're not giving up. I think the whole industry is looking at DISH and seeing what they will do once the FCC approves their waiver and the LTE-A equipment is ready for commercial use. It would be exciting if both LS2 and DISH came on scene at the same time. http://www.theverge....-debt-agreement
