b) Sprint is in some money trouble, but that in no way means they'll be "gone" anytime soon. If that were true, why are they parterned up with other providers to roll out their WiMAX service, as well as many new services / products, for example: http://www.engadget.com/2008/07/29/s...le-nationwide/

Lastly, even if Sprint was in SERIOUS money trouble, it would not affect our contracts / service because their assets would most likely be on-fire-sale and plenty of companies (most likely other carriers) would jump at the chance to grab a bunch of subscribers, services towers etc. on the cheap. This kind of thing happens all the time; When the new company buys them out, they simply take over and / or merge subscribers, employees, services etc with their main company.
