Hilliard, OH | Re: 3g Because you cant sell an unlimited plan for $99 when someone else is offering the same plan nationwide without contract for $47 per month.
That just won't work."
What $47 plan are you referring to?? | |

| Re: 3g as i said- Revol.com, Cricket, and MetroPCS all offer unlimited plans for $47 per month.
if they teamed up or even one of them took over Sprint and offered that plan in every city that they took from Sprint, nobody else would be able to compete at the $99 price that ATT, TM, VZ and Alltel charge now. | |

I was just being a smart alec, but I did check their nationwide coverage map. Not sure how they would be able to provide a similar service with the resources they currently have now, and their phone selections were very limited. | |

Valencia, CA | Re: 3g If Sprint buys up those postpaid carriers - it'll be able to keep off the bottom end competition, and allow for a bigger Boost Mobile. I don't see that as a bad thing. | |

| Metro and Revol use other carriers phones as long as their CDMA. But if they took over Sprint they would be national and would be able to compete more than what ATT and VZW and TM do. Wouldn't you pay $47 for nationwide UNLIMITED Text, UNLIMITED Voice plus keep your calling package?
That is what i was saying. Nor where did I say keep their current map. i said MERGE or take over Sprint's network.
You didnt read. | |

| But yes. If any of the flat rate unlimited carriers took over sprint their coverage would be nationwide and would be $47 per month. It would not be a hard thing to do if anything ever happened to Sprint.
Those companies should actually take over Nextel's 81 markets and do the same to them. | |
