1. i think most banks are probably stable at this point, if they weren't they probably would've died off by now
2. solid ground as in stable, i'm not saying sprint didn't take a beating and losing 1/2 million customers in 6 months was akin to having a pineapple shoved somewhere (take your pick) and yeah they're not in a position to even try to challenge AT&T for #2 but Sprint isn't going anywhere either, they're killing their costs (yes by having other companies maintain the network among other things), they have decent cash flow, and i would dare say their subscriber churn is declining (ever so slightly but still)
so yeah not a powerhouse but not dyin anymore
3. Don't even get me started on Nextel, i've been saying all along it was one of the worst things sprint has ever done and yeah its pointless that they bought it and haven't done anything with it and yeah their phones are jokes, the only one even worth glancing at is the BB Curve and i find it interesting that i actually saw a current model phone get thicker. they should just kill nextel and be done with it but while they phones and data services stink, the iDen technology is pretty reliable, i think anyway
ok, i think thats all my ranting, for now....
