The way the article is worded, it makes it sound like ALL Sprint plans include free incoming. That's not true.

Free incoming plans start at $49.99 for a fixed pool of 300 minutes. Roaming is not included, but unlimited ReadyLink is.

not really.. sprint has more spectrum then nextel. many people will see a great benenfit from this especially if they deploy the 2.5ghz mmds spectrum and if they put in many areas that they have it increase spectrum and capacity. i wouldnt worry.

45k+ cell sites.
avg of 55+mhz (not including their 2.5 band)
great nationwide footprint.

it will help.
