Sprint needs to manage expectations better

They should just turn sites on and let users use them before announcing a market. It would alter the expectations to what's coming rather than setting expectations too high with full coverage. They shouldn't officially announce a market until it's at least 50% covered like Verizon does.

Speed is great where I get it but they have a ways to go to cover downtown/midtown KC well. Ping is awesome, sometimes below 40ms. 3G performance also improved to about as fast as EVDO can go.

Sprint is announcing markets at 40% completion.

Hmm.. I question that. Maybe 10% of downtown/midtown KC have LTE.

AFAIK it's 40% but it may be less due to such high demand from customers.

40% completion is in reference to the number of cell sites, not coverage area.

I question that too. There are a bunch of cell sites in downtown KC but it appears only 1 site has LTE. Same with Plaza area, appears to be only 1 site.

Which phone do you have?

sg3, but that's an old post. Most of midtown/downtown KC now have LTE so Sprint is indeed expanding.

Okay, I figured you had the EVO LTE which has a lot of problems connecting to LTE.
