How many MVNO's does Sprint need?
OK, Virgin Mobile, Boost, and some other I forgot the name of that gives free phones away. How many MVNO's does Sprint need?
...
True that Sprint has many. I am all for the MVNO's. They don't screw around with billing like the big post-paid carriers.
The only epic-fail with MVNO companies is that the customer service is unintelligible and even a 5 year-old with learning disabilities could do their jobs.
I never needed to use their CSR's. Just choose a plan, activate the phone and forget the rest.
What more does someone need????
...
Wouldn't a MVNO bring in additional revenue to the network owner ? If that is the case, as long as the network has the capacity to support the new customers, doenst that mean the more MVNOs the better?
...
Please remind me again what does at&t do with their precious network spectrum? Oh, yeah they provide 3G services to MVNO's like Amazon, Apple and Sony for Kindles, Ipad's and other similar devices.

You forgot Net10, and TracPhone. But these aren't owned by AT&T. iPad plans are direct sales of AT&T, not Apple. Kindle, and Sony, OK.( Didn't know Sony used them, but OK.) That could be a GSM thing do to global standards. But they don't have 3 plus MVNO's owned by them.
You can also add, OnStar from GM which is run on VZW's service. I'm sure there's more on VZW too.

MVNO's are the best alternative to the big vampires that suck wallets dry with tons of fees.
Flat rate plans are an MVNO's weapon.
MetroPCS is the only one built from the ground up pre-paid.
Other than using Sprint's network for roaming, they need no one.
