Nextel was a great company until Sprint took over. Sprint's billing practices are some of the worst anywhere around.

Of course I can't say anything good about AT&T either. They're corporate greed plain and simple.

And what's wrong with that? The world has the right to change it's face. This is the Asian century, get used to it.

Actually, I don't expect much from Bronx, NY. There's not a whole lot of people you can look down on if you are from Bronx. It's surprising you even have a cell phone there, let alone joke about someone that's gonna take over the carrier.

Might as well empty the company store. We dont own or make anything now. We are on the road to being losers.

KC STAR newspaper cheerleads for outsourcing. when big local employers like SPRINT get eaten by koreans and FORD truck factory moves to mexico, i hope editorial writers end up sweeping out cargo containers at nafta superhighway terminal south of K.C..

Let's see.

The arabs are buying our ports and skyscrapers.
The Koreans are buying our telecommunications.
The Chinese are buying our debt.

Note to self: Take arabic and chinese language course.

It's been said for years that Sprint is such debt. They don't value their employees, thus the horrendous Customer Care.

Sprint is without a doubt the worst company that I have worked for. Nextel was a great employer. Sprint does not care about employees. Sprint employees are some of the most unhappy people on earth. I hate working here. I hope to leave soon. They don't care about the customers or their tiny network. I work on their network when they actually let me make repairs. I know why your phones don't work. "Do not spend money" is the new policy when it comes to the network. Get a Verizon phone if you need a network that works.

That is why I say, Buy unlocked phones!! they may cost you a little money, but it only makes the phone companies lose money. Plus once you see what pieces of crap their giving away fro free you'll really be pissed off.

I started paying unlocked phone 2 years ago, and haven't looked back. The features we get passed on to us are a disgrace. As far as phones and phone companies go America is in the dark ages. ATT, Srint, Tmoblie all need to feel the crunch in their wallets. Trust me their is no better feeling linking your new unlocked features out the arse phone and the voice on the other end says "I don't see that one in our network."

I am contract free and have a phone with all the bells and whistles and I still suffer the web and txt message. The Big companies need to step up and come clean with the bullisht.

Hell in England you can get teh new Nokia N96 free with a contract, that's a phone with GPS, Mulitmedia,* megpixel camera and any other thing you can think of, for freaking free. Makes a black berry look lie a Fisher price toy.

We need to stick it to them like they have been sticking it to us. Well that's my 0.2
