Why Sprint is hitting some important areas, and then at the same time, places that are by all means considered the middle of no where. "Southern Puerto Rico" = is this a joke?

Where is the announcement for Las Vegas? You know, the city that has major electronic expos.....one of the biggest tourism spots in the entire country, yet it's left out on every announcement you make.


While you're at it, why don't you give the entire state of Mississippi and Louisiana LTE, before you even touch the rest of the country; The rednecks need to stream their Nascar!

Not sure why everyone keeps being surprised by things like this, considering this is how all the major carriers seem to start their network roll-outs. It makes perfect sense too. You start your new technology in areas of relatively low traffic, so you can test and work out kinks in the system before you drop it on a major metropolitan area where your network will be pushed to its limits and there is little room for errors.

The work is being done by local contractors. They are turning it on when a market hits a certain percentage of completion. Logically, you can get a smaller market up and running faster. That also looks good from a PR perspective since they can then say they have XX number of markets covered.

also has alot to do with speed of obtaining permits, contracts, and right of ways to the sites. All sites period will be done in 2013 so everyone sprint covers will have LTE.
