Sprint PCS and AT& Wireless predicted losers from Portability

Two carriers that some analysts predict could be most hurt by customer
defections--AT&T Wireless and Sprint PCS--unveiled new services to keep
customers or lure new ones.

AT&T revamped its wireless data network to make its service the industry's
fastest. Sprint weighed in with a walkie-talkie feature that enables a user to
push a button to talk to someone.

While the AT&TWireless EDGE rollout was "nationwide" it won't be
"systemwide" until mid-2004. That may peeve quite a few people. Will
they offer "all you can eat" from your phone for $15/month? That's
another big question for AT&T Wireless.

I'll have to see a map of where EDGE will be deployed to see if I
could get service where I've already gone with my SPCS phone as a
modem. I know I've used SPCS' data service in places that Verizon
Wireless doesn't have service (Savannah, Georgia, for example).

Phil, you are on a roll with the aliases. Funny thing is that one can
nearly always tell it is from you. Nobody here gives a crap what you have
to say, because you have said it so many times before and lied in an attempt
to support your position. You are a liar, a fraud and an otherwise
worthless member of this forum.

Veldhaus - Insulting people will not help SprintPCS gain customers from WLNP,
indeed it makes SprintPCS look real bad when they see what sort of apologists
are out there.

And if AT&T has problems that does not make SprintPCS a better carrier.

I work for SprintPCS
I *don't* speak for them.

Next week is WLNP when Sprint's churn rate will go through the roof. Watch and
see.

I'd like to hear Sergei Kosonov's point of view....

Hi michael

Sergei? Sergei Kosonov? where are you?
