Everything about sprint sucks. I can't wait until my contract is up. They have dead spots everywhere in KC.

I just picked up the 8330, and its with sprint as well.

I love it so far. Coolest phone Ive ever owned. getting an iPhone and joining ATT would have cost a fortune...

plus I can download torrents for blackberry... iPhones, not so much

I have sprint as well, my friend used to be a manager at a simply wireless store and hooked my whole family up with a 24 percent discount every month. One of my other friends works for sprint and said they just switched it to 1 year contracts with the same discount on phones that the 2 years used to get, can't go wrong with a 1 year

You have to be sucking up to somebody in the management.

I hate sprint...I have ATT now with the IPHONE and LOVE IT. Best phone ever...the ONLY issue I have with it is it doesn't support MMS or whatever the picture mail is. I've had Verizon, TMOBILE and Sprint as well. If i we're to rank them all in the johnson county area at least it would go like:

ATT (most expensive though with Iphone plan)
Verizon (qualify for 15% off bill...if they had an IPhone, I'd be there)
...
TMobile (qualify for 15% off bill too...too many dropped calls in my house and no reception at work)
...
...
...
Sprint (BY FAR MOST DROPPED CALLS...crappy customer service.)


Oh, thats the blackberry model I had as well. It IS a lot of fun BUT my phone started acting up like everyone else I new about 3-4 months after I had it. I NEVER dropped it but it still screwed up...thats Window's Mobile for you.

With a partner like Citigroup, no wonder Sprint is cutting staff each week.

How would it cost a fortune? New customers to any provider do quite well, ATT had a free bluetooth headset they were giving away this week for new customer signups on eligible phones. $199 purchase price for an 8 gig 3g iphone, $30 per month on data plan $5 for 250 text messages then pick your poison on minutes.

To him $5 is a fortune! He sells used condoms. Not much of a market.

My wife and I have been with Sprint for years, but I'm now shopping around for the first time. We've been ok with Sprint, but they don't really have any phones we like right now, and my wife's Treo just died. We're on the SERO plan, so we have quite a nice deal. For both of us to get iPhones, it would add $70-$80 per month, and that's hard to swallow. I have a 16GB iPod Touch, and love the thing. I'd LOVE to have the iPhone instead. Just don't think I can justify the additional expense.

I've had Sprint for years and it has been flawless. I also believe in supporting my KC brethren. (Yes, there will still be thousands of local Sprint employees after the layoffs.)
