Ouch...so far they have lost 1.6 billion dollars this year. Better than last year though but still not good:

See the thing about sprint is, they literally gotten rid of everything that made them better then the other carriers. Only advantage they have is unlimited data for the 1% that use it (like me).

Otherwise their network is worse(since they lost half their towers and no more 4g build outs till mid year).

they can't afford to maintain their own network that's y they sold it off to 3 other companies who aren't doing anything about the network issues.

i think sprint is doomed. i remember not long ago we said at&t and t-mobile were but sprint looks worse off now.

They are not doomed yet. They are currently still trying to get out Of the mess they have been in for the last couple years and they are doing a while lot better. Now with the announcement of their 3g improvements and their launch of lte and lte advanced if it works like they say they will be doing real good in the next year and beyond. All I know is that I'm sticking by them for a bit longer. I'm looking forward to an lte evo with quad core browser.
