Re: It's more like cable/dsl, not blueray/hd-dvd

I wonder if Sprint would ever let go of >50% Clear. I'm not sure but I think Sprint still 'owns' the spectrum, which is hugely valuable. If Sprint does become under 50% owner of Clear, I would think that Sprint would then lease that spectrum to Clear and not 'sell' it to them. Not sure of the arrangements though.

I think that Sprint still owns most of that spectrum. The only thing that they did was put the Xhom, the spectrum and then what resources they had on their already small but being built network.

If I was Sprint or even Dan, there is no way I would let go of that take. I don't think the BoD or shareholders would do it either. Sprint needs the Clear network in order to start off loading their current CDMA and iDEN networks. When they intergrate voice by VoIP they'll be able to do it more and more but not until they are able to build out WiMax even more and offer lower price 4g data/voice phones. Without offering the phones at a lower price (entry phones) Sprint will NEVER be able to fully change over.
