1 edit |  Sprint good data deals; lousy coverage
The cable agreements with Sprint are good because of the good data fees Sprint has(as long as cable keeps those data fees similar). And the planned single voice mailbox is good. But until Sprint can take advantage of all that additional spectrum they bought, their geographical coverage compared to their wireless competitors is in last place. I wouldn't consider switching from Verizon until the Sprint coverage areas are expanded.

| AT&T has that "unified messaging" gimmick and it's less than exciting. Maybe Sprint can do it better. Ha! I crack myself up sometimes...
Cable companies have no incentive to be price-competitive. Sprint isn't exactly a performance leader and there is no unique feature to drive sales other than the data aspect, and that eats into the MSOs bread-and-butter so don't expect much of a deal there, either.
I keep thinking that Sprint/Nextel is prepping itself for absorption into Comcast or one of the other big cable outfits. They really don't have the chops to compete and their corporate attitude is worse than most. |

For 07 a 7 billion dollar network upgrade is going to be made while the network is currently being improved. Deployment takes time and I am surprised they are going to get all the EV-DO Rev A upgrades by the end of this year, but we shall see. |
