By then, T-Mobile will be on LTE. They are installing the technology later this year (you know, the same year that everyone else is installing it).

which post? wimax is better technology then hspa+ but hspa+ will be here sooner on devices and right now hspa+ is faster then wimax currently(sprint maxs out at 10mbps currently on wimax). by the time wimax reaches it potential speeds of 100mbps, tmobile will be on lte. I believe lte will be better because its backed by the 3 largest companies and sprint is the only company going wimax. Also wimax isn't the same as evdo, you will need a new device. going from hspa to hspa+ will not require a new device. once lte and wimax are launched new devices are needed. there are evdo rev a only aircards and they do not pick up wimax, to pick up wimax you need a new device.

this is it basically. if you get a signal, tmobile has faster data speeds, better phones, and if you don't have sero better plans, also they don't require contract. The only advantage sprint has over tmobile is that in non metro areas ( and there are alot of them) sprint has better coverage. its that simple.

Also to get back on topic a lil bit, no one even knows when the sprint 6.5 update is coming. Verizon already updated their devices, and tmobile said 2 or 3 devices (one being the tp2) will have there 6.5 update next wednesday with a leaked rom already available. Sprint has yet to give us anything, last once again.

Nice turn on the thread.....

I can tell you if Sprint does go with Walmart I will leave them once the ink is dry. I do not do business with that company (ex: explotation of people) and will go to T Mobile (HD2 FTW).

I know, who am I?.... Just someone with morals and principles.

Now carry on...

How is Walmart a worse place to work than say Target or Best Buy or Amazon or Netflix? Hell a lot of tech companies keep people as contractors, including Google, so they don't have to pay benefits. Its capitalism in action. If you are an unskilled worker then your labor is not worth much and Walmart will pay so at least you have a job. A lot of their managers and even corporate personnel started in the stores. Walmart's evil is overstated by people who really do not have any idea what is going on inside of the stores and only listen to the propaganda thrown at you.

Perhaps those people should have picked up a book sometime before the age of 25, then.
