Re: WOW!

the only thing about metropcs is they have a small footprint, limited roaming, and roaming is expensive. if you stay local, youre good to go, but for those who do a bit of traveling, this type of plan will look really appealing for sprint.

I have Helio... A Helio Ocean to be specific. $99/mo unlimited minutes, unlimited texts, unlimited pictures/video, unlimited on-device data/3G web surfing (no tethering).

Helio leases space on the Sprint PCS network and roams on Alltel and Verizon for voice service when out of Sprint coverage (no data, just voice when roaming).

So if Helio can do it while buying capacity from Sprint, I'm sure Sprint is thinking they can do it too.

SK Telecom appears quite healthy thanks. And quite happy to continue taking over Earthlink's share of the company. Helio's only fault was being held back by shortsighted Earthlink executives.
