  1. It would be very hard to offer a service guarantee of any kind though which would bring down customer satisfaction. Also, you have people like me who are OK with 1 Mbps. The only time I get a speed boost is when cable companies raise their minimum.

    I know there's many areas lacking sufficient speeds now but it could improve if many users are throttled there. I wouldn't be surprised if T-Mobile does this. They already have. They launched binge on and enabled it on everyone and then gave everyone free unlimited for 3 months. I think it was a big experiment to see how the network handles everyone on unlimited but throttled. Now they offer a great new unlimited promotion. Unlimited but throttled looks like the trend.

  2. Just a thought. Would it be possible for Sprint to change from data bucket plans to speed plans like cable? For example, 1.5 mbps, 8 mbps(like cricket) and no limit. I think it would be a good counter to binge on, music freedom and wouldn't affect net neutrality. This would make Sprint plans simpler and possibly control network load. I think Sprint has to think out the box and take a step ahead instead of just matching other carriers. Just an idea.

  3. It only affects it in a few select cities. Mainly New York City. That's about it. Nearly everywhere else, Sprint already has 2 B41 carriers online w/CA, not only on Sprint sites but on capable Clear sites as well.

    I'm anxious to see what happens in NYC when WiMax shuts down there. Hopefully setup for 3x20 when S7 launches :)

  4. I see. It just seems like Sprint doesn't mind the delay. Since WiMax affects LTE Plus deployment one would think they would fight a little harder to end this. Legere would probably be in supreme court over this lol.

  5. Integrate your *Sprint* number with Google Voice.

     

    If you are using a Google Voice number that is separate from your Sprint number, there is not a good solution unless you are willing go switch solely to your Sprint number, or port your GV number to Sprint.

    Thanks. Does the recipient also need to use hangouts as well?

  6. I think it's another sneaky way to get people to change plans. He announces free unlimited lte and people don't know about the small print. They receive a text about their gift. After 3 months of using more LTE than usual they find out their stash is gone and think they need a higher data bucket. I must say JL is one slick dude. Like uncarrier X, unlimited streaming, low def to control network capacity and automatically enabled so most users wont even know ( also reduces ALL streaming video not just binge on video) and doesn't mention rate increases.

  7. They are just like isheep. Raise the price of phones (with less features and memory btw) and there's still idiots waiting outside for days to get one. This T-Mobile dude basically says Sprint works well for him but he's willing to pay more for T-Mobile even though the service sucks for him, just because he loves T-Mobile.
