What is sprint going to do in 2007?
I am a loyal sprint customer, and have had service for almost 2 years now and have had no problems. I am just wondering what sprint has in store for the upcoming year? New phones, service enhancements. Also are the sprint/nextel towers ever going to be combined? I think this would be a great service enhancement/
Only positive thoughts please. I don't want to hear try another carrier I am perfectly happy with sprint.

They always have new phones coming out. Towers combined? They already started putting Iden on cdma towers and vice verses that did not have them already! Rev A should be network wide by year end. ANd Rev A phones should be out in first Quarter!
...
Yep, billions are going to be spent on network enhancements for both the iDen and CDMA networks in 2007. There are gonna be some cool new phones from Samsung (like a D900 variation and "The Flipper"). Like Wom said, Rev A rollout will be nationwide. Plus at least one new Powersource handset (hybrid) that has EVDO. That's all I can think of right now...

Why don't thay get EV DO on the entire network before they start with rev A. It's so bad to go from Power vision back to just vision when traveling and there a lot of gaps where there is no power vision. Does anyone know when the entire network will be EV DO??? Also, I heard that SprintNextel may make a bid to acquire Alltel in 07

why take 2 steps when they just have to do one. Its easier to upgrade once then twice!

OMG verizon is so much better(JK) that was a joke please dont bash it.
But yeah I hear that Sprint is getting a new blackberry and so is Nextel.
Anyone care to elaborate???

Rev A is a bit faster on the download but not by much. The two big improvements come from being able to lower the latency for packets coming from the tower to the phone (makes VoIP and Push To Talk palatable) and a much better uploading data rate.
