Gump Posted December 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 (edited) I just converted 50 or so lines from verizon to sprint. 20 aircards and 30 some phones. Better business plans. I tested 3 phones and an aircard. The air card has twice the download speed of Verizon. I tested it on two different test sites. Same result difference everytime. My Verizon phone had a few dead spots on the way home. Sprint also did but in different spots. As far as reception goes for Phones it's Sanyo being the best then Samsung then LG.

jporter12 Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 Sprint works well for me, and has for about the past 9 or 10 years. Aprint used to be the only carrier that would work at the shop, through the metal walls. Now, pretty much all work, somewhat in there. The only place my phone drops signal at work is right where I work! If I move to the middle of the shop, I'm ok! Maybe the electrical panel is interfering somehow? EMI maybe?I'm possibly going to get a new phone with them soon, depending on what kind of dealing they'll do with me on a Hero. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

max power Posted December 30, 2009 Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 They aquired Nextel. Quite possibly the worst cell phone company out there. They would have died a quick death if not for the walkie-talkie and the construction industry's love for it.who do you know with a Nextel now?

Gump Posted December 30, 2009 Author Report Share Posted December 30, 2009 (edited) yes.....Sprints not pushing the Nextel line per say. The direct connect has a delay.In November 2009 they also aquired ICPS Inc.http://www.ipcswirelessinc.com/No idea who they were.I feel there will be an evening of the masses. We'll see. Thru good old competition and maybe thru government intervention more so concerning towers and airspace.

(S, $4.13, +$0.23, +5.90%), which rose alongside other telecom companies. "A year ago, they were losing a million to 1.2 million post-paid subscribers per quarter," Comack said. "There's talk they might lose half that in the fourth quarter in this year, which is a huge improvement. It's almost shocking."

mahdey Posted June 1, 2010 Report Share Posted June 1, 2010 personally i know this sounds bad but im hoping for another "crash" Visa was big money for me. Rode the first wave when they went public, then trade triggers fired when it dropped and bought again at 48 bucks. Ford has been phenomenal to me. At 22 years old and good karma these two stocks can now buy me a nice house and new superduty with cash, or more responsibly pay my masters degree and my future wifes masters...or even better just keep it in the market. Who knew 10k my dad gave me in spring 2007 would be what it is now. I think there should be classes for people who have some spare cash that can learn how to play the market and possibly help them out of financial stress. Ofcourse the risk is great as well.

Gump Posted June 2, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 2, 2010 No not selling Sprint. They have their hands in a lot of things and one day it will be go near 80's or be sold. My guessI have a chunk in Visa. I didn't get in till later but it's up a good bit. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Sprint should have attacked with more Android devices, like Verizon did. Android is really taking off, and is trampling on the iphone's market, somewhat.

Gump Posted June 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I agree. Sprint has increased customer service but they still need to increase their cell coverage. They are better than At&t but not as good as Verizon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gump Posted June 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 Last I read Sprint dumped a bunch of towers where they had overlap. Apparently they have not reinvested in towers in the sticks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mahdey Posted June 3, 2010 Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I wouldn't be surprised if sprint and verizon eventually make a "deal" with each other. What i think verizon has to its advantage is a very large business customer base as opposed to sprints. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gump Posted June 3, 2010 Author Report Share Posted June 3, 2010 I think so. Waiting on something to happen. I think Sprint has the prepaid market pegged. They start selling their 4G EVO June 4th. Wimax is an issue of the race sorts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
