You would probably need to set up some gravitational beacons and inter-galactic warning markers to ensure passing craft gave the anomaly a wide berth. |

I just became part of a Sprint Contract. I am actually HAPPY with their service.
I thought I was Safe and Insulated from Comcast, way down here. Now you're telling me I'm in danger of being drawn into The Heap.

All we need is for Sprint to cry to the goberment that they might go bankrupt. Comcast can save the day and the goberment can force Comcast to buy Sprint at a much reduced price.

As long as it's just Sprint the wireless company and not Embarq.
I think Embarq is a separate company anyway and is being bought out by centurytel. |

Though I hear good things about the United Federation of Sprint and the Universal Church of Comcast's efforts to quell dissent on the lower fourteen colonies. |

Re: What Is Old Is New Again
I miss Metrophone , that was real customer service. Comcast should just buy Sprint, convert to LTE. There you go instant phone company . A real competitor to Verizon, and ATT. |

I don't seem to have as many problems with Sprint as many others, but if Comcast were to buy them I'd have to jump ship FAST. I finally got to a reasonable plan and cost and Comcast would be sure to fix that right away. No thank you. Comcast: go buy T-Mobile. Leave Sprint alone. Thanks.

Re: What Is Old Is New Again
Who remembers that Comcast actually is the ORIGINAL owner of Nextel? (Comcast spun off Nextel in the late 1990s *prior* to their purchase of Jones Communications, and well before AT&T Broadband was on their radar; Comcast still has long-term contracts with the Nextel side of Sprint because of their DirectConnect features.)
Perhaps its all the talk as of late of *unwinding* previous transactions (mostly related to problematical asset valuations), and now whenever a spinoff hasn't quite worked the way some thought it would, they want to retract it (such as the talk during the late 1990s about possibly re-assembling the Bell System).
What next? Comcast being dragged into re-acquiring Muzak? (Muzak is another former Comcast subsidiary; it was previously the Sound Division.) |

All of my Comcast services are great!
Add cell into the mix? Hell yes!
Sprint even, Why not!
Maybe Virgin Mobile will by them out... they run on Sprint anyways.
That would be fine by me too!

Re: Wow...
Comcast has the cash to do it.
Sprint would be renamed "Comcastic PCS!"
"I'm a MAC."
"And, I'm a PC."
"What's that new gizmo you're holding, PC?"
"It's the new Comcast PCS Google Phone. I can even use the iStore products on it. It has a 80 gig HD too."
"Wow! Where can I buy it?"
"At any Comcast PCS store or Comcast office."
Ding-Ding!

@qwest.net | Should Comcast Just Buy Sprint?
Comcast needs to not even bat an eyelash Sprint's way. I truely dislike Comcast, but love my Sprint service. If Comcast does acquire Sprint, I feel the quality of service I have now would deteriorate.
I have not had any problems with Sprint. |
