Sprint Close to Buying Nextel

Posted by CowboyNeal on from the stack-and-attack dept.

NateDawg writes "After the recent merger of AT&T and Cingular, it looks like Sprint is close to buying out Nextel. According to CNet, the different networks could bring expensive problems, but that could be overcome by the diversity of the company's clients. Nextel has many corporate clients, while Sprint appeals to families and teens."

    What are you talking about? Sprint is teh rocks!!! I used it all the time and loved it. It felt like I had a land line with me all the time where-ever I went. My dad switched to cingular to save money (it was almost a THIRD the price) and I HATED my cell phone. It never ever got reception anywhere. It has to be the worst cell phone service I have ever had. Now I just recently got my own sprint phone again and I am so happy! I can make calls again! ee!
