doesn't anyone else relize how truly bad china is? they sell us garbage, they sell us fur's that they make by skinning dogs and cats a live, and they are now trying to hack are computer systems. we need to buy american again and let china rot in h@ll!!
sprint already has the best prices for what you get out of the plans. they might not be as cheap as t-mobile but t-mobile doesn't have any tv, radio, or live streams. and cingular charges 20 a month just so your basic phone can access the internet. if sprint does make an unlimited plan, it would really make them standout. cricket and metro both have unlimited but their coverage areas are so small. hopefully sprint does go this route. and would it kill you sprint to offer a sidekick enve, or simalar phone?! you have to compete right? and if you want to sell texting plans, then a full keyboard non-pda phone would help.
Amp'd was a great idea on paper, but they made a deal with the Devil. That Devil being the greedy Verizon Wireless. Amp'd chose the main network provider who will cancel their own customers for using too much data. So what did they think was going to happen when Amp'd customers started blowing through data like it was water? Verizon lacks the spectrum of Sprint, so they go out of their way to keep what they have working smoothly. Amp'd should have gone with Sprint. But they also needed to bill their customers correctly. It's a no brainier, but I was shocked to hear they weren't sending bills to thousands of customers. Some of which had $10,000 and $15,000 bills that were never paid. It's just sad that a company with a good product made the wrong choices and now is gone.
you do know that you can use normal mp3's with your sprint phone right? with verizon you can't but you can with sprint. i have 4, 1gb memory cards full of music and videos. sprint doesn't force you to buy music!
i hate at&t so much! they were this huge company that ripped customers off, then the governement forced them to split up into baby bells to make them offer better prices. then the governement let them all merge back together to yet again, ripped customers off! i feel bad for cingular customers now. if you think you were locked down and over charged before, wait another 4 years!! at&t may i make a phone call now?
honestly, how many people in here have a pda and data plan with verizon? how many here spend 480 dollars extra a year for a verizon pda data plan? verizon could offer the treo 99.99 billion and it wouldn't be worth the extra money a month they charge for pda data access. so who cares what pda's they offer!
doesn't anyone remember that Sprint has offered live tv since 2003?! you are making it seem like MediaFLO, with it's broad 8 channels of content, is the biggest and best game in town. when sprint has offer mobitv, not to mention movies and radio for years now.
so what if sprint doesn't go with MediaFLO now!! 8 channels compared to 20 for mobitv. not to mention a better price tag and larger coverage area with sprint tv. not to mention you can use sprint tv while roaming! look when MediaFLO includes 20+ channels with a national wide footprint, then we can all throw up are arms in pride. but just because verzion has chosen to lower their guarded walls to let some customers access a few channels. that is not enough for me to even see MediaFLO has being anything special. i hate Brew! i hate the fact that verizon wants to force their customers to buy it. so i don't care about verizon and MediaFLO.
and at&t, if they gave me a plan of a billion minutes for 1 dollar a month, i still wouldn't buy it! so if qualcomm can't get sprint to sell MediaFLO, then it is dead on the water. because no where near as many customers buy advanced content from cingular and verizon, as they do from sprint.

MediaFLO might as well stand for RIP if they can't get sprint on board.
hek yeah! a 600 dollar phone with only 32 megabytes of ram! a basic nokia has that now but who cares, it's a treo right? and with an extra 40 dollars a month just to access the internet through verizons network!

so i get a 600 dollar phone and i get to spend 480 extra dollars a year just to use it! and the phone comes with 32 megabytes of ram! wow! how can any other company compete?
wow! t-mobile can brag they are getting a new color! that makes up for the lack of every single advanced service being offer by the other 3 national carriers! no tv! no radio! no fast internet! limited roaming!
but a cool new color!!
operasam, with sprint you can roam for free on verizons voice and data network. so any plan from sprint is a million times better then anything dealing with verizon.
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm in the market for a new phone and money isn't a limitation. I'm also not partial to any particular US carrier, but here are some of the features I'd like to have: WiFi, GPS, good coverage in lots of places, push Gmail (a must!), physical keyboard (a must!), a touchscreen, decent battery life and a relatively slim body. And please, nothing that has a fruit logo on it. No offense to the fruit fans, though. Thanks!"
