A hint of New nextel phones.
http://news.yahoo.com/news?tmpl=story&u=/zd/20050316 ... »
There wasn't much news from Nextel at this show, but we got a peek at the push-to-talk carrier's roadmap while we were at the Motorola booth. Nextel phones scheduled for the next quarter include the inexpensive, bar-style camera phone the i275; the sleek, catlike i836; the rugged i355, which has an off-network walkie-talkie and the ability to form conference calls on the fly; and the i605, Nextel's first Bluetooth phone. The i930, Nextel's first smartphone, is currently scheduled for early this fall, though we've seen that phone pushed back before, so we're not holding our breath.

wow i feel bad, nextels phone suck...their huge and have hardly any decent features
...
And they're all the same except the form factor, granted the i860 has a camera, a shotty one at that . And battery life? Non existant!
...
yea i feel bad for nextel customers, they should come over to cingular or tmobile, where GSM allows the use of practically any phone available!

Blah, ill pass. I came from both cingular and tmobile. Had tmobile first, went to cingular. left them for nextel. Nextel is by far better customer service and call quality from what iv experienced.
...
you have to be kidding,my sister had nextel and she waited on the phone for 25 minutes to talk to a representative, and it may not sound rediculously long, but compared to t-mobile, when i called they connected within 2 minutes! i dont know how u can compare tmobiles customer care w/ nextel, the awards say it all anyway so i dont need to argue

Iv never had to wait more than a minute or 2 with nextel and iv called several times. Iv had to call both cingular and tmobile a lot of times to. Now t-mobile i like better than cingular as far as customer care, and t-mobile i usually waited a few minutes up to 5, which is good. But iv had best experience with nextel.
...
and one time at band camp!!!
wow call once and compare everything to that one call. Your sister probably called at noon on a saturday and you called early tuesday morning...

...
NO, actually im basing this not only on my sister but on consumer reports which i was reading last month and nextel was towards the bottem as far as customer care and wait times.
...
consumer reports dont count, my friend. its about churn, lifetime revenue per user, and arpu. compare tmobile's to nextel. oh wait, you cant becuase nextel's numbers are way better.
...
25 mins? i dont belive that at all.
the awards say it all? well how is tmobile's churn and lifetime revenue per user compared to nextel's? well that says it all. who cares about biased rewards.

...
is that all u ever talk about? Apru and Churn? to the average cell phone user this means ****...they care about awards, reviews, personal opinons
...
awards are biased. reviews are about churn and arpu. personal opinions mean nothing. its all about what the companies report.
its all about arpu and churn and lifetime revenue per user. that truely shows how much a customer truely hates or loves that carrier.

...
arpu=average revenue per unit right?
u said it is $67 for the quarter...so basically on average ppl r paying $67 (does that include taxes?) a month for one cell phone? nextel is a ripoff

...
churn=the % of ppl that switched carriers right? PPL r not going to switch carriers during their service and pay the cancellation fee and since i think all nextel plans are two years, this # is low. Y does tmobile only have one year agreements? they know the customer will come back b/c of their great customer service,cheap plans (data and voice), and great offers and with their new pcc maps they wont have to worry about signing up ppl that dont get service in their homes!
...
some of nextel's plans are 1 year also.
most companies have 2 years some have 1 year. it doesnt matter as long as you can keep them, and as long as they can pay. ie lifetime revenue per user. nextel and sprint has the top 2 in that arena.
i do like about tmobile is that get more situation. the problem is, i cant find their niche to say wow!!! thats great!! they are going to win just on that. with only 16 million subscribers, this is the time to be like nextel, to find something that seperates you from the pack.

16 million in the USA...tmobile is a world wide corporation...u cant forget about the rest of the world...the US is actually just a small market for tmobile as it originated in germany...if u compare the companies as a whole meaning world wide, i think TMOBILE is actually the leader out of all of them!
...
i am not talking about the world, its about the united states. UNITED STATES, NOT WORLD!! come on now, please.
tmobile is a leader out of all of them? i would disagree, look at verizon and vodaphone, they are number 1.
anyway, its about TMOBILE USA, not tmobile global.

...
but weather tmobile gets thier money from the US or from germany or england, does it matter? moneys money! Doesnt matter where it comes, it all equals profit and success
...
look. we are in the united states so we are talking about the united states market and products. if we talk about tmobiles global operations, we should also talk about verizon and vodaphone's global operations, but we arent.
its about usa. please lets stick with that.
its about usa. please lets stick with that.
...
if ur only considering Tmobile in the usa they are not the best i will agree...what do u want me to say..NEXTEL IS THE BEST WIRELESS COMPANY IN THE US...THEY HAVE THE BEST APRU AND CHURN AND ALL THE OTHER GOOD TECHNICAL STUFF! OK i said it is that what will end this arguement đ
...
again, its about the usa. i am saying that tmobile needs to find a niche and quick, or else there would be many problems.
i dont care if you say that, i am just saying my view on the situations. about tmobile etc..

yea. arpu is average rate per user.
the 67 dollar arpu that i said, and that other providers give DOES NOT INCLUDE TAXES.
62 is what sprint has.
its not a rip off. it means people are paying for it.
arpu's for both verizon and cingular are starting to go highier a bit. they are in the 50's.
all data revenues have been picking up, which tells us many people loves data services.
yes all this in a cell phone. its functionality. you pay for it. you pay a premium for it.
they do that for boost which is nextel's prepaid service. thats what people do. they want it, so they pay for it.
