Sprint, wp ... finally??

[mturner7472]

we knew they'd finally do something, they'd finally come around ... but if this holds true, they may have just saved those thousands of accounts who signed the sprint wp petition.

Microsoft testing Windows Phone 8 with dual-core Snapdragon S4 for Sprint? | The Verge

Nice find, but I'm not sure I can stick around sprint long enough hoping this comes to fruition.

Too late for me and my family, there are too many unknowns. Will they actually pick up the phone? Will it be the screen size I like and a good design? Will Sprint finally bring LTE to my area? AT&T with the Lumia 900 have everything I need right now (well except a lumia 900).

should be here soon oldpueblo I'm looking forward to it myself!

So "finally" as in 8 months from now?

I'm with oldpueblo, too many question marks at this point. I'd be pissed off if I wait it out for 6-9 months and its not the right phone for me or they don't pick it up at all. Meanwhile I could've been enjoying the Nokia 900 the whole time.

probably longer than that for sprint!!!

As long as it's the size of HTC's Titan II or One X then I'll be quite pleased I think! I'm so tired of postage stamp sized phones.

I wish wish my WP brethren on Sprint all the best luck. I hope this happens for you and sooner the better. I just couldn't take it any longer myself. I hope they at least give more than 1 choice again. I know WP users aren't the bread and butter, but throw 'em a bone... or 2 to stick around.

I can't figure out y anyone would want to stay with sprint considering the crappy 3G speeds they have.

No joke, once that Alltel deal went sound because of verizon their data speeds went from awesome 3G to g in my area, I left for the greener pastures of AT&T, oh slow for h+ in my area is 4.5mb down, and that's better average speed than wimax from sprint and LTE from verizon in my area. Absolutely zero complaints with AT&T besides their non existent update practices.

Unlimited sounds great, but when it's as slow as I was dealing with I can get done in 5 minutes what I tried an hour to do

This is the EXACT reasone why I'm switching to AT&T. According to coverage maps, I'll get 4G at home and LTE at work. Sprint...well, last time I checked I was getting 0.32Mbps down using the BandWidth

But is it a Windows phone? Article doesn't really say. If it is then I'm on it but if it's Hemroid then forget it!

 

[jfa1]

No its an HTC Droid phone! W@ith high end specs!

Absolutely! I am perfectly content with my "inferior" 3.5G of H+. 4 to 5 mbps down is faster than many of the WiFi hotspots in my town.

No it isn't, which is exactly the point I'm trying to make.

 

[rchillin]

Another slap to the face...hit to the gut... 4/8 can't get here fast enough. I guess this explains why my Arrive still doesn't have 8107 update...smh

In my city on Verizon 3G and AT&T 3G, they both pull around 2.5mbps. The closest Verizon LTE market gets around 20mbps.
