Re: If google wants to fail...sure!

Are you crazy??? The telco was the only thing keeping Sprint in business. Telco paid the bills while wireless lost money. Have you taken a look at Embarq's stock lately? Uh.... got any clue who Sprint's telco became??? I agree Sprint is a dying breed, and the wireless has been so for years as a result of giving anybody and everybody credit. I know people who ran up $1000 in debt with them and walked away. Do your research before you start making accusations.

@sprintlink.net		 What percentage of Embarq and LTD's revenue comes from the wireless division? Take a look at that and let me know who's keeping who alive!

Thank you. A lot of people outside the wireline world do not have a clue about what has happened to Sprint.

I disagree. As always, I think people tend to forget about Sprints LD/Wireline backbone and the value it adds to the equation. I'm sure if you took LD out of the picture, access charges, etc.. would make it pretty much impossible for wireless to survive, long.
