Both sides would be able to vastly improve their coverage, and offer a better variety of service, plans, and devices. As for their networking, I would imagine the company would start developing a nationwide LTE network and leave things status quo until that would be ready to go. On the subject of Nextel, maybe T-Mobile would do what Sprint for some reason has blatantly failed to do: include 3G data or wifi on all new IDEN phones. People complain that IDEN is old and outdated, but technically speaking, so is CDMA. The diffrence is that Sprint's CDMA phones come with 3G radios. If they did the same for Nextel, Sprint would gain a substantial amount of subscribers. Maybe T-Mobile would see that.Williamnoreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-2789017239427251571.post-32555665853773031222009-09-16T21:52:46.411-06:002009-09-16T21:52:46.411-06:00I'm all for a combined T-Mobile/Sprint company...I'm all for a combined T-Mobile/Sprint company as long as they keep Nextel iDEN services afloat. Though outdated, there are still a significant number of people like myself who need direct connect for their work and leisure as well. Verizon and AT&T are plain nasty. They need some real competition.Andrewnoreply@blogger.com
