Re: I'll say they have problems

TM doesnt want Nextel. They want Sprint. Sprint has already said they were considering spinning off Nextel to their own company; which would give Sprint the right to sell the Sprint Wireless network.

but no Sprint messed up by not forcing Nextel contracts over to the Sprint side and by allowing customers to change over to Nextel.

Sprint should have NEVER allowed Sprint customers to "migrate" to Nextel knowing they were going to kill the brand. They should have said "no sorry we're only allowing Nextel customers to come over to Sprint's side". Done deal.

and the Push to Talk is either businesses or people that are just usually lazy and do not want to dial a phone or who are generally rude because they feel that everyone should hear their convos on the damn walkie talkies.

and my post that you replied to never said anything about Nextel. I'm talking about the Sprint side.

Nope.. you didn't but talk about one, you talk about the other.

TM doesn't want Sprint. They want the spectrum. They want the customers. They could care less about the Nortel or 5E switches in markets where they already are. Do you know the cost involved in "converting" them over? They would dump CDMA and show the world what Sprint should have done with it got nextel.

TM also would get most of it's money's worth from Sprints Wireline backbone. It would be like buying a nice new car, opening the trunk and finding a treasure. I would say Sprint was smart to keep it's legacy LD backbone/switches intact when it spun off it's local division. Sad thing is, it's easily overlooked.
