I doubt it'll run on SERO since they seem to block all Androids on the Sero plan. Without SERO, T-Mobile is actually cheaper especially when I can get a 15% discount through my school. I just need to find away to get the 5.99 T-Zone trick to work.

Sprint is going to go out of business with that WiMax junk since all the carriers are going to LTE including VZW. What this means is all the good phones will go to LTE and Sprint will get the crappy phones since they have a small market share.

I don't know about going out of business. I never use Wifi and would never use WiMax on any phone. At least not in the part of the US I am located. I get 3g everywhere I travel. On a notebook however, I would use WiMax. Bring on the LTE FTW

Wimax and LTE are close enough, Clearwire is setting up Wimax so that later down the line should Sprint want to switch to LTE they can easily do that. In the latest testing verizon has done, lte usually maxes out at 16 mbps in realworld usage, though its capable of 100 mbps, Wimax is maxing out at the same in real world, but is capable of upto 70 mbps, so what is the difference?
Who cares, anyways, untill we have hardware that can truly take advantage of what those technologies offer, who cares about who has what if the maxing are speeds are so similar. Plus when Sprint finishes it rolls, anytime along that line they can choose to switch to lte, and hopefully by then hardware and battery tech can take advantage of what it can offer.

With all carriers dropping service pricing due to the economy, Sprint is stupidly hurting itself by trying to purposely get rid of its SERO customers. I know they aren’t making much from 30 bucks a month, but its better than getting nothing. If MetroPCS can make money on similar pricing, than I don’t see why Sprint can’t either.

i would have to agree, something is better then nothing. When the hd2 comes out i'm going to tmobile because i really want that phone, if sprint doesn't let me keep my sero plan when a phone that i want comes out, i'm going to cancel the line altogether.
