This oughta' be good. Do they mean to tell me that I can save even more money with my bundled svcs by switching from Sprint-Nextel for wireless to Embarq??? I don't see it...

The phone selection is horrible. I wouldn't have offered the Pantech and (2) LGs to an MVNO catering to the cavemen from the Geico commericals....

Are they going to force existing bundled svc customers (as I) who have Sprint (now Embarq) local/LD and Sprint-Nextel wireless over to Embarq's MVNO???

No... that would make no sense...

AND... the plans aren't going to "save you lots of money." All they will do is offer convienence of one bill. Keep in mind they (Embarq) are an MNVO which means they have to pay Sprint for use of their network. In other words they can't offer what Sprint does as far as prices, forget they came from the same mommy and daddy... they are different companies and they both have to make money...

Exactly, but in the end, after contracts are over, if you use Sprint (Embarq) local/LD and Sprint-Nextel wireless they will want you to migrate contract over to the MVNO. I'm trying to figure out if there will still be savings? I don't see it, I drop mins, F&F, and all that other crap...

Embarq might want you to, because they will make revenue from it... Sprint would rather you stay (they make more money that way)... besides... like you said, you dont want to lose all the perks on Sprint's plans...
