Good CDMA phones

People fail to mention that there are good CDMA phones, they only come out from Sprint though. How come no one ever mentions sprint as a CDMA carrier?

good question...think it could be because sprint always refers to their network as PCS? lots of people dont' know the difference after all.

yeah, but think about this. As of right now, with sprints crappy coverage 22 million, and last quarter added round 500k. Cingular is what 26 million, and they have great coverage, same thing with at&t.

Sprint's got a good marketing dept. I can tell ya that right now. Their coverage is crappy when compared to others, but somehow they beat out others by considerable margins in adds.

It wouldn't surprise me too much if in the FAR future Sprint became the subject of a few merger plans.

They also have 95% of all small business under their belts, because they offer really good discounts.

um.. maybe you should read the quarter results.

VZW posted 1.535 MILLION net adds for second quarter.

That's more than the total net adds to the Sprint, Cingular, ATT and Nextel subscriber base COMBINED.

T-Mobile hasn't posted their quarter results quite yet.
