Re: CDMA/EVDO
said by adisor19  :Yes, it's beyond me the stupidity of COX. When the writing is ON THE WALL in regards to the death of CDMA, you see this kind of stupidity happening. Adi You don't know the details. Obviously Cox is going to be using Sprint as a roaming partner.
It's just a matter of time before Sprint will be bought out by one of the cable providers.... |

| Sprint won't be bought. They have the power to change everything and are just waiting for the right time. They're the ones that brought the $99 plan out. Everyone still offers it except VZW. Sprint is the one that brought out $50 flat rate unlimited nation-wide on iDEN and will expand to the CDMA network as well. |

Most people believe they are trying to pump up the iDEN subscriber count to make a sale more attractive. Intergration efforts within Sprint have stopped, and they are rumored to be making efforts to make a sale easier. Also, Boost DID offer an unlimited CDMA based flat rate plan, that was $20 higher than the iDEN one. They scrapped it when the iDEN $50 plan was announced. I would be highly surprised to see a $50 unlimited Boost CDMA plan.

| I never said anything about them moving the $50 unlimited plan to Boost. I said about Sprint bring it out on their side. Boost will go away, Sprint-Nextel will drop their rates and will become one as far as rate plans go.
And you don't have to integrate the networks to offer the same plans. You can have a Sprint $50 unlimited without walkie talkie or you can have Nextel $50 with unlimited walkie-talkie. Easy to choose from no problems deciding. You either want it or not. |

| it's doing great around here as well. I went the other day and donated blood and one of the employees asked if i had it and i told her yah and she asked me if it was really $50 and i told her YEP! she said DAMN! I'm changing from Revol/Cricket/MetroPCS to them! Screw paying $47 per month before taxes and only being able to use it here in Toledo. I said you can use it outside in other cities if you pay $5 extra for roaming but have to be in a "partner" city. She said F*(K that!
Boost needs a referral program!!! i have referred like 5 people in the last 2 weeks! |
