Sprint forced to move to 4G LTE?

[Since9600]

So does that mean we get $10 off our bill now if our 4g is obsolete?

I highly doubt it as you will still be able to use it..

"Clearwire already is testing LTE technology in the Phoenix market. And the company reports it wouldn’t face great costs to start using LTE.

Clearwire still wouldn’t have to abandon its current WiMax coverage because it has ample spectrum to operate complementary LTE and WiMax networks side by side.

Your 4G isn't obsolete.... yet. But the $10 fee is now for all smartphones not just 4G devices

Sprint seems iffy to me. They are very sporadic in releasing top quality smartphones. Their plans seem to change constantly. And it seems like every year there is talk about them being bought out or merging with another carrier. I've tried to like them because the service is good and the prices are awesome, but the company is just too erratic to feel comfortable with.

Bah.. Sprint/Nextel has been around longer than almost all cell carriers, they are not going anywhere.. They have been folded into/merged and changed throughout the years just like Verizon Wireless and all the other carriers... Verizon didn't exist until April 2000... Besides if the service is good, who cares what the name is?
