i dont mind sprint. but why did the movie "eagle eye" allow sprint to sponsor them though? when they could have had verizon or at&t? because when ever one of the main characters took their phones out, they all said sprint on them???

Same thing with the TV show "24". Everyone on that show rocks Sprint or Nextel.

Guess it's a product placement deal.

I found that comment on the show funny being as you cannot use a CDMA device in Africa.

so wait why again do movies/shows alow sprint phones? another show was jericho on cbs, all of their phones were sprint. i can name a few movies/shows where ive found the verizon logo, final destination 3, i'll always know what you did last summer, she's the man, and i recently saw a guy in prison break using a phone that said verizon on the back. i know this is off topic, but does sprint go to the movies or do the movies go to sprint to put their phones in movies/shows?

movie companies go to cell phone companies for funding their movie... so they go to sprint, because they have a higher budget for media advertisement (movies, as opposed to tv commercials)...

nice try... sprint is the first carrier in the us to offer this service... you were able to bank online with any internet enabled phone, but this makes it easier to manage, as you're not waiting for pages to load, cycle through one page, and go to the next. verizon might get this in a couple years, seeing as to how they like to "test" everything... and by "test", i mean cripple.... and if you have been doing this for a year, whats the program you've been using? vz bankning? doesn't exist....

Actually it DOES exist. Only on certain handsets. It may not be up to specs for YOU but it does work well with certain banking institutions. This program is FREE right now. And just like Sprint, more banks to come...

You are calling the application wrong...... "With MyMoneyManager, Sprint Customers Can Use the Speed of the Now Network(TM) to Send Payments Through PayPal and Quickly Access Multiple Bank Accounts Right on Sprint Phones" Is what is says on Sprint's newsletter

At&t sponsored nip tuck, I've seen all of the major carriers besides T-Mobile sponsor movies and t.v. shows. i think that sprint just seeks out the most tv and movie deals. someones gotta do it.
