:what: thats revenue from two separate companies. They cant merge them because they're two different network infrastructures.





But i guess you would know a thing or two about two things being under the same umbrella huh? :sas1:
:ohhh:

Some MAJOR bullshyt. I really aint feeling all these companies merging into mega conglomerates..plus Sprint customer service is pure ass and CDMA sucks

:ohhh: I always see how you nikkas on this forum mention how CDMA is garbage compared to GSM. Why is that? Is strictly about being able to use your GSM phone with any GSM carrier via sim card?

not worried about service since they wont drop GSM but who knows what could happen to prices and policies...

hopefully ATT will compete harder...

That and CDMA data (EV-DO rev.A) sucks ass in 2014..up to 3g only, and its 3g speeds are the worst (up to 3mbps..but less than 1mbps is more likely). GSM techs (w-cdma as part of UMTS) has MUCH MUCH better DL speeds...hence Tmobile was hitting 25mbps BEFORE even rolling LTE out.. There are better CDMA data transmission techs (EV-DO rev.B) but they weren't implemented in any US carriers. HSPA (high speed packet access), HSDPA (high speed downlink packet access), and LTE (long term evolution) are GSM(A) foundation-approved techs. Its actually deeper than that but ill keep it concise.

It's STILL A fukkING MONOPOLY NO MATTER THE OPERATING SYSTEM!

Calm down.

Both Tmo and Sprint know as big as Verizon and At&t is, they have no chance of competing separately.

Tmo owners in Germany been trying to sell Tmo go years and emerging with Sprint is the only way they can go against the big two
