Why?
Why would they need the LG Voyager, I would think that them getting the Samsung Instinct, would rule out the need for the Voyager

VZW has actually been around longer in the form of other company names ( 360, CellularONe, Alltel ) and yes, Sprint does have a ton of customers for now but with recent company problems, how long will it last? They have the biggest churn rate in the cell industry ( amongst the Big Four ). Even T-Mobile didn't lose as many customers as they did. Read: Over 700,000 customers lost in Q4 2007 alone. As for the phone they release "first", that would be an attribute to VZW's vigorous testing procedure. One case in point: Sprint's Mogul. I absolutely loved that phone but it had problems up the Wazoo. Firmare upgrade after firmware upgrade it needed. HTC had all the bugs worked out by the time the xv6800 was released by VZW ( that's why I have it now ). Now they are releasing the HTC xv6900 ( Touch ). Again, as long as the bugs are worked out I can live with the wait.

Last time I checked
The last time I checked Verizon Wireless has 67 Million customers, while Sprint/Nextel combined has 56 Million Customers, and they are losing them fast. I am not saying Verizon is the King, but the last time I checked Sprint store inside a busy mall on a sunday afternoon, one sales rep! I know they are cutting expense, but the way they are doing will only frustrate more customer because they have to wait longer!

Alright I have voyager, it's a cool phone, but trust me I don't think that phone is the best phone ever, so no need to accuse each other of copying. in the near future both Verizon and Sprint and even ATT will be releasing more cool phones, I am sure they will be better than voyager, now days a phone that's half year old is considered OLD!

The reason they lost that money is b/c they wrote of the nextel for good will. They didn't lose that much money based on customers leaving. do some research if you are going to post comments like that.

sprint-vs-verizon
hye, i been with sprint for 4 years and theyre not that great,,i loved the phones they had, but the service wasnt that good, i cant recall how many dropped calls i had, and many places that wasnt covered under the network, my sprint phone would constantly roam, and the evdo was ok well long story short i left sprint for verizon and found out there 10 times better, even the customer service, the evdo and i only had one dropped cal, many wont agree with me i think sprint is still good but they have to improve a lot, to get up there with the big doggs
(att, verizon)

how exactly do you "still" someone's money? is that like the same thing as freezing your assets?

as for tmobile and sprint compared to vzw:

i worked for an indirect agent who sold sprint, t-mobile, and verizon wireless. based on personal experience, i can tell you vzw has the lower churn rate of the three. the only reason i even pitched t-mobile on people was if they had sh*tty credit (back in the days of smart access), no social security #, or travelled internationally extensively. and as for sprint, i only pitched them when all else failed since they had a max deposit of $150. any company that ends up terminating their customers' contracts due to too many calls into the customer care obviously has some serious issues.

Sprint all the way
Sprint's REV-A is faster than Verizon, Sprint doesn't cap you at 5 gb per month on web like Verizon. Sprints air card doesn't require a voice plan. Sprint had the unlimited plan for over a year in 3 markets for $119.99 and Sprint started CDMA from scratch. Verizon was on TDMA when they were Bell Atlantic. Get your facts straight! Verizon thinks they have the best customer care but from first hand I know they don't. Everyone I've talked to at Verizon care was very arrogant and never helped me. The Voyager is a nice phone but it ranked 3rd in Feb 08 Money Mag page 116 & 117.

I see no point in releasing this phone on AT&T or Sprint unless it gets some major upgrades. Everything I read states the touch interface and browser are bad to say the least. That and with the 2nd gen. iPhone and the Instinct being released in the next 2 or 3 months. I guess Sprint could consider it an upgrade to the Rumor at best. At least it would not be locked down and you could load what ever version of Opera Mini is out at the end of the year.
