Re: And T-Mobile Will Offer...
The new CDMAs with HD voice is pretty clear IMO. Like everything the technology gets better with time.
Re: And T-Mobile Will Offer...
Truth. Carriers lock by choice. On the plus side if someone steals your phone it's less likely they will be able to use it with CDMA.
Re: Ok Verizon/ATT
Maybe, but this is actually easier for T-Mobile and Sprint via Deutsche Telekom and Softbank.
I can see ETF waivers coming out of this.
Like most carriers, Sprint smooths their coverage map, just because the map says you should have coverage doesn't mean you are not in a hole, the structure of the building can also cause loss of signal.
But now, upgrade your phone and bame a tech will come to your house and then you can say "see I told you it doesn't get signal in here".
Of course a tech can't waive your ETF...awkward...I feel for those who will have to ...
Re: I don't get it...
Funny and informative.

Re: Just FYI, everyone who opposed Net Neutrality was paid off by Comcast, TWC, Verizon, etc
They're all on the payroll, but, and I quote, "it's hard not to notice patterns, such as the trade group's (National Cable and Telecommunications Association) near-consistent contribution of $10,000 to almost every Republican member of the House subcommittee.

Re: Microsoft buys Nokia
The difference is HP bought Palm, not Microsoft.
Re: I wonder if
Wireless nothing, but it has everything to do with Dish's debt.
Re: I wonder if this could be considered a change to the contract?
From AT&T's Terms and Conditions:
IF WE INCREASE THE PRICE OF ANY OF THE SERVICES TO WHICH YOU SUBSCRIBE, BEYOND THE LIMITS SET FORTH IN YOUR CUSTOMER SERVICE SUMMARY, OR IF WE MATERIALLY DECREASE THE GEOGRAPHICAL AREA IN WHICH YOUR AIRTIME RATE APPLIES (OTHER THAN A TEMPORARY DECREASE FOR REPAIRS OR MAINTENANCE), WE’LL DISCLOSE THE CHANGE AT LEAST ONE BILLING CYCLE IN ADVANCE (EITHER THROUGH A NOTICE WITH YOUR BILL, A TEXT MESSAGE TO YOUR DEVICE, OR OTHERWISE), AND YOU ...
Re: Softbank is the better deal.
With that said, share holders will end up with more shares of Dish than they would in New Sprint with the Softbank deal, I'm kinda pulling for Dish.
Full take over and rebrand, not Sprint with a rich uncle.
Re: that's Sprint's problem...
During the Forsee years, there is no question Sprint made some bad decisions, including the Nextel Merger and choosing to deploy WiMax when they did, but in recent years with Hesse at the helm their decision making has been night and day from what it was, has Hesse been there all along they would have not going the Wimax route as they did...however they already had large investment in it when he took over. If you look solely at ...
Phonescoop Inconsistency
On Thursday phonescoop wrote "AT&T has also admitted to using Carrier IQ, as have HTC and Samsung."..but in this article they state AT&T does not admit to using Carrier IQ, what gives?
Re: Verizon 4G available now??
You probably do have 4g available now....from Sprint :D
Am I reading something wrong? Virgin's website says $60 for 5GB
Could just be my understanding of the story but http://www.virginmobileusa.com/mobile-broadba nd states $60 for 5GB...right?
Even still..better deal than VZW.
Re: I really hate the term Droid...Its ANDROID.
Yeah...like the line that says Verizon on it...you don't download "Droid" updates.
I really hate the term Droid...Its ANDROID.
Step away from the phone and go watch Star Wars.
Re: easy fix for the vz customers
Please refer to the thread you are replying to...700 mhz LTE will not be unlimited.
Re: lol no where near sprint and tmobiles totals
hahaha :lol: :lol: :lol:
great response...and very true of "Jamlando"
Re: Wot?
Yeah it is a little odd...even on BoostMobile.com when you click on the phone its called the Juno but the icon click on to get there says 2700.
Re: SMH at a post that includes not one valid point
Agreed...
Additionally, part of Palm's issue was with hardware, WebOS is an excellent operating system but their hardware was lacking...enter HP.
I bet in 1997 when NeXT's bought out Apple Computer Inc. the TS was like "blah what is NeXT doing buying Apple, their in the toliet, blah"
Some people just lack vision.
Wrong link phonescoop
hmm...the link this story provides doesn't lead to sirius XM..odd
ah welp
Re: sunfire, geo metro, cavelier etc
If a Cavalier ran at 4G and could put out a WiFi signal that would make several other Rolls Royce run faster than they could on AT&T's network I'd say it compares.
Re: Gizmodo is stupid
IMO if the phone isn't released yet, it's a prototype.
But think of it this way, if that was Steve Jobs himself in that bar, finding a prototype Windows Phone 7...he's taking it apart.
Re: honesty
In the phone finders defense (not gizmodo but the guy who actually found it) he called Apple directly and said "hey I think I found a prototype" but they keep their CSR's completely in the dark so they dismissed the claim as a China knockoff...that's Apple's fault.
Re: Gizmodo is stupid
While I agree with the concept you're getting at...and by no means should they have released the guy's name...but as far as taking it apart, going through it, etc...it's a prototype not a personal phone and it's clear that was the case.
Apple expects this to happen if a prototype is found..this is why they place such a high level of security on things like this.
They had it coming.
Re: New iPhone (CDMA?)
Agreed...
Take iPhone 3GS...flip over...place sticker on back that says "QUALCOMM 3G CDMA"...and there you have it a CDMA iPhone.
I think they should be called the Window 7 Phone
I think they should be called the Window 7 Phone...ties in better with the Windows 7 marketing.
....and Windows 7 Phone was my idea.
Re: Very excited!
While I too am really for the Windows 7 Phones...the phones this story is referring are not windows 7.
Re: It's amazing how uneducated consumers are...
Very true, hell VZW was even investigated by the FCC for their erroneous data charge.
I'm sure his aunt is doing something to that requires data and does not even realize it.
Re: "Another Shame for T-mobile"
Yeah when a phone that doesn't exist comes out a network that hasn't even built a single 4G tower and can't even provide quaility 3G service in SF or NY...people will forget all about WiMax...
Really bro?
Re: I just have three important questions...
I disagree, at least at launch.
The supersonic will no doubt be 3g/4g as 4g is still relatively small.
I strongly doubt they would attempt to have two different price structures based on market.
And even if they did you likely will not be able to disable a 3G/4G phone from accessing 4G should the customer not want to buy an attachable (i.e run strictly on 3G).
Oh and if youre actually a Sprint employee and you're paying that ...
Re: I just have three important questions...
The 4G plans will likely be the same as current data plans as it is a 3G/4G device and the majority of its users will still be on 3g.
Re: Another football to drop
He is referring to a post "Long Term Evolutionized" VZW...I still don't think it would happen, I just can't see the two signing a roaming agreement.
Re: This Thread Is Lame
If this thread was dated a year after the merger I would agree with you but in 2010 not so much.
Kinda of a waste to Sprint I feel
While I completely understand killing Virgin postpaid to just write off the subscribers as a loss is kind of a waste.
They are CDMA customers using the Sprint network; they could have just loaded the Helio ESN's into Sprint's system, created comparable plan codes in their billing system and migrated the customer's without breeching any of their agreements.
That's essentially what they did when they moved the legacy Sprint subs into the legacy Nextel billing system. This would have ...
Re: Sprint merge.
"I think the current state of Sprint could make two different technologies work together but as separate entities meaning choice."---They kinda already do in iDEN and CDMA; this would make 3 by adding GSM into the mix. To make that merger work would require adoption of a single technology and neither company has the capital for that right now.
Re: Will this work with Sprint??
It will not work with Sprint, as mentioned earlier Sprint/Verizon load the ESNs of the handsets they sell onto their systems and you cannot activate an ESN that the system does not recognize.
Re: Marketing Melts Brains
You actually used voice command...whoa..they do exist.
Needless to say you are a minority in that respect, I can't believe someone would change their carrier over voice command...sounds like T-Mobile isn't gaining a customer, rather a headache.
Re: 1/1/10 OPPORTUNITY TO CANCEL YOUR SPRINT ACCT WITHOUT ETF
No, by crediting you the value of increase they are negating the "adverse" effect of the change.
As per Sprint.com Terms and Conditions:
"When You Don't Have To Pay An Early Termination Fee"
You aren't responsible for paying an Early Termination Fee when terminating Services: (a) provided on a month-to-month basis; (b) consistent with our published trial period return policy; or (c) in response to a materially adverse change we make to the Agreement"
By crediting the fee your are still liable for ...
Re: I don't dispute anything you stated, however I still have an issue with the ETF policy.
While the analogy itself is not perfect the reason I stated that example is because the basis behind it is similar.
When talking about advanced devices purchased at full retail price it is a fairly large sum of money involved. Enough to where if you were to walk into an electronics store and finance something of the same value a credit check would be performed and the consumer would be approved or denied based on the result.
VZW is offering the ...
