Sprint Asks Obama to Set Up $2 Billion First-Responder Network
Yo At&t and Verizon lovers
You know..just wanting to set the record straight for the Sprint Fan Boys

Verizon rolls out the COWs out to disaster areas and consistently has their towers back up and running right away. Nice examples are Katrina and I think Ike that hit Houston last year. Leave it to Sprint to ask the Feds for help in boosting their inferior coverage, or their horrible customer service, or their flailing finances, or keep them from losing more and more customers.

Sprint had its network up and running after Katrina within 48 hours. Plus, they loaned phones to their competitors while they worked to get their own systems up.
boosting their inferior coverage
Put down the kool-aid please. If you are looking at sprint, att, and vzw coverage is not much different. I would actually say from what i hear and personal experience att doesn't even belong in the conversation (inside the united states). Sure sure your phone gets coverage where mine doesn't in some places and vice versa. That's why there is more than one company to choose from. Want more proof? Ask gizmodo

Technically, neither does NEXTEL iDEN PTT. But that's because NEXTEL is the only iDEN service!
Nextel is not the only iDEN service. There's also SouthernLinc: a regional iDEN carrier that operates in four states.

Yo, AT&T and Verizon's network is much larger, Sprint and Nextel don't even have service where I live (Mendocino County, Northwestern California), so they'd be useless to first responders here. Not to mention much of the rural west has no Nextel or Sprint, but much of it is covered by Verizon and/or AT&T, so yo, Nextel fanboy, go somewhere else and peddle your junk 🙂 Nextel would be fine in the big cities, but out here, no way.
Hey ilvla2 aka calif1mc, you don't live in Mendocino County, do you? Wow, I never would have known.
As for Nextel iDEN network coverage (or lack thereof), that is entirely irrelevant, as this first-responder network proposal calls for "satellite-based" COWs tha...

How can you report anything to the moderators with all the junk you post.

It's a joke...ok. All I can say is WoW, you actually think that comment is true 😳
For someone so paranoid about being followed around the forums you sure make the best effort you can to keep that paranoia going 😲
