Sprint still considering the sale of its iDEN network

It's no surprise that Sprint is looking for a potential buyer for the iDEN network, however the company is keeping cool and fielding the best offers...

You're one to comment on grammar. It should read" If only Sprint WERE as smart as you and your grammar skills"

They've got QChat. Might as well sell it while it's worth something good.

I have no clue what you just stated in that very grammatically incorrect "sentence."

The only phone that you could consider "exciting" is the Curve 8350i, the rest are your stereotypical iDEN phones.

if iden gets bought out by verizon, damn watch out!

Yeah watch out! What would happen is all that all the VZW fanboys and salespeople on here who have been telling everybody how bad iDEN is, would suddenly reverse field and start talking about how great it is. Not that it would ever happen. I think SHOULD sell it, but only if they can retain inter-operability with q-chat as part of the deal. That would allow them to maintain the competitive advantage they currently have over VZW's Rev A PTT, unburden themselves from the headaches of having two networks and bring in a decent amount of cash that they can use on something else (Wimax-based PTT anyone?).

You butt monkeys don't know iDEN's capability from a two cans and a piece of string. Sprint has upgraded the iDEN network and it runs better than ever. If your in business and need PTT iDEN is the best, period. If your butt monkey with a prepaid paid phone and $25 aircard your mommy bought you, you'd say sell it now because its not worth anything.
