Sprint says goodbye to Nextel?

I have read a couple forums about this topic of DT looking to buy Sprint/Nextel and am trying to figure out why it's hard to believe? The nextel half I can see becuase they are iDEN but Sprint if everyone remembers is PCS1900 which is the same frequency as TM US. It would be a very easy conversion though a little costly. I think it makes perfect sense for TM US to try and buy the ailing telecomm.

The mother country wont give T-mobile enough money to expand its own network in the us. And wont give them the funds to lock down "good" phones exlusively. What makes you think they will give them enough money to buy a network technology completely alien to their own? Youve got to be insane if you think this is going to happen. Im going to stick with the former dream.. Google Wireless with a nationwide Wimax Network and have a nationwide VOIP carrier! LOL dream on!

I think that the problem w/ Sprint is the structure, the right hand never knows what the left hand is doing, and w/ the merger mgt fell through the cracks and there is not enough motivation out there w/i the company b/c of how all the constant changes are presented to employees, they should have had a better buying plan when purchasing nextel so the transition would have been smoother for both employees and customers. Nextel mgt took over Sprint mgt but the Sprint name stayed major, THIS DID NOT MAKE SENSE FOR THE COMPANY, it's like having a bus driver flying a plane.

the only bad thing about nextel is their phones they need to get some high class quality phones, the service is good, now cover on the usa is poor, but ill get better, now on the other hand, sprint needs better customer service ( what is with that when you go to a store to ask questions about your bill or other problems they say that you need to call costumer service...that sucks ) on your bill their is always going to be some extra charges, poor internet service, store reps sucks specially in new orleans, now if verizon or att buy nextel that will be the company number one in the usa.....

Would this mean that sprint and nextel people would be able to talk to each other for free???

Well i have Verizon, and i love there service... i have the Voyager ( only because all my friends have verizon, and i can text them for free :) ) but i used to have NEXTEL... i Honestly believe that Nextel is a VERY GOOD Service, they have awesome coverage, and you hardly drop calls from them..... I THINK EVERY BODY ON HERE NEEDS TO SHUT UP ABOUT WANTING THEM TO DROP OUT OF THE CELLPHONE BUSSINESS... Please, i do believe that Nextel made a bad decision to merge with Sprint, because Sprint is such a poor and stuped company... Poor Nextel, i feel bad for them merging with sprint... my Parent and my sister have NEXTEL, and they love there service... The only main reason people dont like them, is there phones, and they do have ugly phones, but they do have really good service :) SOOO STOP HATING NEXTEL
