I have been saying this since it was announced! So glad the DOJ is stepping up to do something about it.
It's not over yet! Do you think sprint would still want them?

Sprint will want it but they dont have the money, there is a group of private investors that have been lurking on the fringe. They have been designated the most likely outcome. Chinese and Russian firms have shown an interest but the Congress hurdles would be great.

QFE. I wonder why it tok this long though, I would've shot it down the moment they announced it.
i think apple should buy tmobile so they can give iphone users a true end to end experience. tmo could exclusively sell iphones, leave all the good android handsets to the other carriers. if all the big networks(ie att and vzw) saw a mass exodus of customers to go to a service provided by apple, prices would prolly go down across the board.

I need more info on it. Android Central didn't say much. It's a loyalty program so do you have to be with sprint for a certain amount of time? Pay a certain amount (like premeire) have certain types of phones (smartphones? feature phones?)? So many questions and it said it started today x.x
I seen somewhere that's only for sprint employees.

As a Sprint employee, I say this makes me giddy. I don't know why Sprint didn't do this sooner. How can you sell the latest phones if you're rocking a handset from 2 years ago?
Well, time to apply for a job at Sprint.

If more people who had this phone knew about android versions and what not, I'm sure samsung would have been getting complaints right about now.
Luckily, for Samsung though, most users are teens who text a lot(me included) Oh well, maybe they'll learn some day.

That's right. I would venture 90+% of people have NO CLUE what Gingerbread is, nor what version of Android they're currently running. They see an update come through, install it, and go about their business. A select few of them may notice something different with the looks, but that's about it. They may notice something looks different, but only because one of their apps (I'm thinking Eclair vs. Froyo messaging) looks a bit different. If that's the case, they probably assume the update was just for that app...
If Samsung is throwing around Gingerbread all over the Epic (as well as most of the US galaxy s series) have not gotten, maybe it is the carriers holding everything up. All of the updated GBs have been through Kies and for some reasn Sprint don't want the Epic on Kies.

According to the release specs the iphone 4S has no WiMax or LTE support. So 4G only works on ATT with their crappy 4G.

At this point i'm stuck with my epic for another year min. While i'm fine with that it would really easy to live with if I had an official release. at this point I wish they would just release what they have good or bad and our awesome developers here will fix it. Heck what ever they release wouldn't be as good as what our developers do anyway. So close enough I say, release EH17 source and get out of our way!!!!

Hey there,
I just thought I would share this with you people. I work for a carrier (don't even bother asking which one ) and we received our test unit today!!! It's the grey version and it looks totally awesome. The screen real-estate is just outta this world. I put it side to side with my S3 and looking at them, I became a bit pissed at my purchase as when the Note 2 was announced, I had thought that we would never carry it (ok, I've already said enough)!
I'm sorry I can' really say much but I had it in my hands for about 5 mins...! It was a 16gb model. I witnessed popup s note, popup browser (NICE), the new menu when you pull the pen out...oh yeah and this thing is FAST!
I have no idea about the release date (they wouldn't tell us), although I find it a bit strange that we are receiving a unit so soon. I've read on several sites that it would be next November...!

You must be in the united states, you said several sites said November ( that's US release month) and you said you didn't expect it so soon ( Europe is expecting it starting this Friday, going on next week).

I didn't actually have enough time with it (5mins) to notice any potential bugs (and mind you, we only received the phone today). I can ask my colleague who's in charge of the device though to see if he notices anything odd.

Why would anyone sign up to 3 for a 4.3 update?? That's the most moronic thing I've heard here so far.

Just to way in, if memory serves the 3 support chat lied to me several times saying the note 2 they sold was lte compatible when only Orange sold the n7105.
Be it miss information to them, or a fraudulent sale, I don't intend to ask them anything speculative anytime soon.
