What point?
I'm not here to critique Sprint. Do I want to do well..well in a sense to offer competition to lower costs for consumers overall - yes.
But at the end of the day, I could give a bee what their strategies are.
I adapt & overcome the prevailing market conditions as a consumer.

As a consumer, I had other choices, wether 4G or not when the EVO came out.
So it's on me whether I lathered up for the EVO or not at that time.
Esp. when Verizon had droid choices & SPCS's own 4G network was not up to snuff.

I see too many people trying to be business critics base on misguided persona phone wants & forgetting where they are in the food chain.
