Pulling ahead of the competition!

Cant wait for Qchat! Go Sprint!

This is all good and well.
But until the improve their voice network then they will remain in 2nd place for CDMA.

I dont care what their TV ad's say. Sprint voice coverage falls way behind that of Verizon.

If they are pulling ahead of the competition then why aren't customers migrating from VZW and Cingular to join? Case in point is now th...

Dell Lets Us Build A Computer....

🤨 Why can't we choose the features our cell phone has? Wouldn't it be GREAT to be able to pick and choose features and order a phone with it custom made??? Mine would be the t619 shell and many of its features including the the Voice dialing feature, (i soooooo love that "2 2 2 2...lol") the cartoon images templates, tons of memory, caller id voice notes, huge display, front display that lights up WITHOUT having to apply 49 tons of psi pressure, and i sooooo love the menu shortcuts, all you have to do is type 3 digits and YOU'RE THERE!!! (Now if i could ONLY memorize them!) Do you think there's any chance that will happen anytime soon, or am i just destined to "roam the planet forever in search of the perfect cell phone??!!!"

Sprint07

that would be cool, but i don't think it would ever happen sadly

Correction to article

Sprint's unlimited aircard packages are $79.99 unless you have an existing sprint mobile device which then brings it to $59.99... it has to have a 1 to 1 ratio... 1 aircard to 1 cell phone and you can get the unlimited data for $59.99....
