Re: What I would like to see

Man you couldn't be more right. I have been begging Sprint to send me one of their "airwaves" or wt ever its called. I have a mountain home that I'm at more that in the city. Problem is
I roam on VZ and the call clarity from VZ's 800mhz -> sprints 1900 is well bad. Doesn't take a genius to get that if I get one of their Airwaves then I'm no longer roaming and I will be much happier.

That call quality drops when you hit 1900mhz pcs bands is not Sprints fault. 800mhz penetrates foliage and buildings better and that is the big deal with the 700mhz auction. Even better penetration when it comes to obsticles.

Re: What I would like to see

I think you misunderstood me or I didn't explain it correctly.
If I'm roaming on VZ "800" the call clarity is horrible! compared to sprints 1900. I'm sure most couldn't tell the difference but I can. BTW there's no Sprint towers with in a
15 miles radius from where I am up here. We have even offered sprint to put a tower on our land which they turned us down.
Our land is prime since we live in the mountains and the coverage they could get at the top of one of the mountains would be crazy but what are you going to do "shrug".

The problem with Sprint's femtocell is that it uses GPS to make sure that you are in an area where Sprint has a license. That summer home that is in someone else's territory is probably excluded.

Re: What I would like to see

humm interesting, wasn't what they told me. They said that the GPS was for 911 calling to provide location since its actually a Voip call. If it ever comes out guess we shall see
you may be correct.
