(verizon does not support unlocked phones since they do not use sim cards)

But that dirt is everywhere you need it to be. You can't argue with the fact their network covers many places that the other providers don't.  People seem to forget that without service the phone is useless I use Verizon because I can get signal in places that the other providers don't cover.

Sprint doesn't use sim cards either. I fucking hate simcards. all someone needs to do in order to steal your phone is swap out simcards and it's done.

u sure sprint doesnt use sims im pretty sure that everyone except nextel phones and verizon uses sims now i may be mistaken
but it would be odd for samsung to have the f490 released for a bit as a sim phone everywhere and then make it special for sprint as a non sim

[Lucerin Red]

When I had sprint about 2-3 years ago, they did NOT use sim cards. Nextel does use sims, I have one for work and it uses one.

didnt sprint also change up there network over the past couple of years due to their amount of suck

and personally i have zero issues with my ATT service as far as signal goes but im the north east very close to major cities close enough to receive both nyc and philly radio stations so i get lots of towers

Sprint was purchased by Nextel, and underwent major changes at that time.

Bastards are now limiting EVDO modem use to 5 GB per month.  At least my service hasn't changed yet, but no one at Sprint can tell me if I've been grandfathered in, or if they're just taking their sweet ass time.  I do 5 - 10 GB a day.  But when a service is advertised as unlimited, is there any fault with a user who uses it as such?

It wasn't a purchase, it was a merger. I own stock in the company. wish I had sold it 8 years ago when it was over $100 a share, instead of now where it sits at under $10.

And no major changes have been made to the company other than advertising and name. The stores still keep the products somewhat seperate. At least here they do

I live in Oregon, there's vast areas of no coverage by any provider, and huge areas that are still analog only in the rural areas.  Sprint covers the I-5 corridor and Bend/Redmond but you're SOL or roaming (usually on the Verizon network)  outside those areas.  AT&T is better than Sprint but still relies on Verizon's infrastructure for coverage of much of the state.

LOL, I just linked my sister to my network drive so she can watch my downloaded Grey's Anatomy TV rips... first thing she says is "Wow, so clear! It's like a cinema!"

I think she's been on Youtube too long >_<

On December 15, 2004, Sprint and NEXTEL announced they would merge to form Sprint Nextel Corporation. While billed as a merger of equals, the merger was transacted as purchase of NEXTEL Communications by Sprint Corporation for tax reasons (Sprint purchased 50.1% of Nextel, and spun the local telecom division to become Embarq. At the time of the merger announcement Sprint and NEXTEL were the No. 3 and No. 5 leading providers in the US mobile phone industry.

Sprint shareholders overwhelmingly approved the merger on July 13, 2005. The merger deal was approved by the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) and U.S. Department of Justice on August 3, 2005. The FCC placed a condition on the merger that Sprint Nextel is to provide wireless service within the 2.5 GHz band within the next four years. Sprint Nextel was officially formed on August 12, 2005, when the deal was completed.

^which is why I got all that stock in Embarq for free, which I sold to pay for that school semeseter
