Cingular Wireless Posts Solid First-Quarter Results
http://biz.yahoo.com/prnews/050420/clw031.html?.v=6 »
"Cingular delivered net subscriber additions of more than 1.4 million and ended the first quarter with 50.4 million subscribers."
"Reported average revenue per user (ARPU) in the quarter was $49.59"
"Cingular expects to have
UMTS/HSDPA deployed in 15 to 20 markets by the end of the year"
"churn was 2.2 percent"
----
pretty good numbers. my full year guidance is 5.9 million net subscriber ads. (1.5 million for 3 quarters plus this 1.4 million that was reported in this quarter) i will round up to 6 million net subscriber ads.

Wow mextel Im impressed that you actually posted info that doesnt put Cingular down... 😳
...
i told you and everyone on here if there are good results or stories about cingular/att wireless i will do so. like i keep mentioning i am here just to give information and have a debate, nothing more. i dont try to rise a "flame" war or anything like that.
if a company does well you still have to give kudos.

yeah but is what I dont understand is why you post info to make Cingular look bad especially if you own stock with them (SBC). This forum isnt for bashing Cingular. Its supposed to be informative but if you're going to post info at least let it be good info.
...
all information is informative, whether its positive or negative. (by the way its both sbc and bls)
i want to post information and then see people's opinon. i want to see what people thinks about 1. churn 2. arpu, 3. sub gains. 4. merger. 5. new applications. 6. problem with the merger. 7. outages. etc.. all that has to deal with this company, so i felt like i should discuss them.
i dont look to bash cingular, i just post information regardless if its negative or positive.

Yeah but you have to understand that this is an informative forum. I wouldnt care what you posted if it was in the shop talk forum. But most of the people that read this forum come to it for information or questions. Half of the stuff you talk about has no meaning to most of the people that actually read. Im sure there are hundreds of people that come to this forum to read up on info and not post. All im asking and what most other people are asking is to just post in the shop talk forum. I understand where you are coming from but its annoying man for real. This forum is for general Cingular info, not info that only people who work in the industry will know.
...
its a cingular board, meaning you can discuss anything that relates to cingular. i chose to do that. you said that i should post in the shop talk forum? however, the information that i give pertains to cingular. so i will stick with that. if Rich says otherwise, then i will continue to post information regarding cingular as well as other companies. i dont see that i am violating any TOS rules, so i can figure out and infer that what i am doing is ok and not wrong.

Hes already been on here asking that posts that have to do with internal Cingular information be posted in the shop talk forum. What you post is information that only employees know or need to know, not what the average consumer knows. Do you think that half of the people that read this forum know what arpu and churn are? Do you think they have any idea what you mean by TDMA and GSM overlapping? The majority amount of people come to this forum for answers to posts such as "What Is Cingular Going To Do Now?" Yesterday I asked if there was an outage in VA and somone answered yes and then gave an explanation why. All of a sudden you come back with "oh is it because of the TDMA/GSM overlap, blah blah blah?" Everyone took that as you trying to in...

i dont accept your appology for your terrible language last night to me. learn how to keep a cool instead of bashing people especially with curse words. i mean you say a curse word once thats understandable but you said it about 500 times in that post.
no, i stated that it had to do with gsm and tdma overlap. (that is what people said on here) no argument, just saying.
"Whether you meant to or not, thats they way it came across to me and everyone else. All Im saying is just watch what you say and think about it before you post. Because all you're doing is giving yourself a bad rep around this site and no one listens to your information, they just argue with you. This isnt an argument board, its a discussion board. You come across as t...

Preach on so true could not have said it better myself.That is why I stop responding 2 nextel18 he asks loaded questions about Cingular. I did mention the GSM overlay I am sorry I ever said anything in this forum about that.
...
I TOLD you guys Nextel18 ONLY wants to argue. Thats his purpose He takes no stand...He has nothing to stand on....Bashing Cingular , saying in 2 years Nextel with be alongside Vrizon on top., Claiming Cingular paid too much for ATTWS without the knowledge and years of experience of the principles who conducted that del. (he 21 year old)
He just wants to argue....He changes hs story from day to day looking for argument and credibility.
The best thing is not to respond at all and his posts will get lost on the pages. He creates inflammetory Thread headings then keeps them bumped on top by his long pointless ramblings...Hes playing you all and you don't know it. He hates Cingular...for making Nextel and Sprint an also ran in size.
