Sprint

Maybe Directv can partner with SPrint/nextel... Sprint is investing 3billion dollars to start a wimax network, maybe Directv could use that network like Sprint offers its regular network to other companies...

Right.

Just what Sprint Nextel wants to do.

First create a joint venture with four HUGE cable companies (Comcast, Time Warner, Cox, and Brighthouse), and then turn around and enable cable's biggest video competitors to enter the residential ISP business.

Not gonna happen.

why not, money is money.. look at Sprint's wireless division they currently lease out the use of their network to other providers .. (time warner, Virgin Mobile)

it was just a thought... personally i don't see what all the fuss is about with one company offering different products.. i'd like DirecTV to concentrate on continuing to offer the great TV service that they have(like their DVR, it isn't perfect, so they should concentrate on that)...
as far as the sprint thing... i'm sure news corp could muscle its way into a deal with sprint...
