Sprint to Acquire Virgin Mobile USA
Cool, but may be a bit confusing...
What's cool is that Sprint will up their subscriber list.

of the time they have the $50 plan which means they get unlimited domestic calling
yeah with metro, but boost has 50 unlimited with unlimited voice, text and data.

This may be a stupid question, but even though VM and Boost are part of Sprint, post-paid customers don't get mobile-mobile with VM and boost right?
good question. i think so since its the same network.
If you only count retail customers, then Virgin customers did not count as part of Sprint, but will after this transaction.
If you include wholesale customers, then Virgin always counted toward Sprint's total, so that number won't change.
They will not start integrating until they have re-done everything plus the document says it will keep them as a separate company.
but if they were to integrate the companies they will unify the billing platform and consolidate the price plans and make it to where Mobile to Mobile would be included with the sprint, boost, and Nextel.
Yeah I think they learned a lot from that acquisition, so they'd be stupid to make the same mistake twice.
