kudos:3 | said by Jon Geb:As much as I know that the Palm pre is better, the average joe does not. It's funny how opinions get turned into a fact.. the matter of fact is there are no "facts" in your statement.
The iPhone works for some (millions to be exact) and the pre for others..
Neither one is "better".. personally I've owned both and the iPhone beats the pre hands down.. but that's MY opinion.
I could go into a review of both, but I won't.. the general user interface on the pre, while pretty, has MANY short falls over the iPhone. (Just to name one) |

| I think you're onto something there as to why Sprint is still failing. It doesn't have to do with phones, it has to do with public perception.
I think public perception is, Sprint sucks. They have heard it on the media and from friends. A buddy of mine is always making jabs at my Sprint service, yet he has never been a customer. |

kudos:3 | You know.. you're right.
Personally, I like sprint. Their service has done me well over the overs.. and again, that's my experience.
Their service has been fine.. their billing has been fine for me... I get EXCELLENT service in the store.. and premier care on the phone is great too.
I have a Moto Q9C and that phone is rock solid. It works in elevators.. never really drops calls.. great talk time.. a little buggy on windows mobile, but I don't fault sprint for an MS problem.
Then, I do know many people in bad Sprint areas. Those are the ones that will damage the company.. the other group that will damage sprint are those that are just plain bitchy about anything.. you get one problem, and there will always be a problem or two for people, they will think it's the end of the world... add all that up and you have a bad rap.
I still personally see nothing bad about sprint when compared to the BS of ATT and VZ.. those companies are like hawks when it comes to policy. Sprint has done a great job at loosening up their reigns on their service offerings..
Not every company has to offer rock bottom prices.. that's great about competition. If Sprint doesn't offer plans someone doesn't like, there are other options from other providers.. why beat up sprint for that? If ATT has the iPhone and people want it.. get it.. if VZ has a BB they want.. go for it..
But yea.. perception is a big thing.. and they have some damage to clean up.. and I personally think they are. |
