What was the breakdown for net adds from MVNO's, Virgin and the like? Is that the 213k, or is some of that in the 300k direct prepay as well?
...
it could perhaps be located in the wholesale business. that direct prepaid, which is 300k, is actually all boost mobile's signups.

Yup, just read about it here:

not to shabby... boost continues to do well...
they are saying that they are expecting growth to continue from the youth, governement and business and data markets....
by the way.. business and governement sector are responsible for more then 50 percent of the ads and prepaid is another very high percentage of the total subscriber growth.
