UGH its sooooo boring!!!!!!!!!
just get to the new phones already!
Seriously! I just wanna know about my Evo 3D!!!!!!!
Funny his comment regarding AT&T's deal to acquire T-Mo, though! Dan Hesse got asked if he was just gonna stay quiet about it, and he says (paraphrase), "Well, I think the DOJ, the FCC might have something to say on it."
just a bunch of disgusting FLITHY rich old men on the stage talking about nothing. GTFO and tell us about the phones!
Jim to Hesse: "I get very angry when my phone freezes. Who's at fault? Why do things freeze?" Hesse: "Wait, didn't you say you have Verizon?"
Ha. The crowd erupted in laughter. I admit, it was great timing and not too direct, which worked.
Oh yea did you notice how the verizon CEO clammed up when asked about unlimited data?? BYE BYE unlimited on verizon 4G, enjoy for a few months, its outta there. LMAO!!!!
Even Sprint's Dan Hesse who has commercials out that talk about the definition of "unlimited" said "maybe, maybe not" when they were talking about metering, throttling, caps.

Well, we're sure to find that all carriers will most likely be joining in on nixing unlimited data. Sprint seems to be most reluctant, at this point, and will likely be the last to join (based on speculation).
But, hey, I'll take unlimited data for longer than any other carrier for as long as I can get.

Honestly, in this business, I think everything is 'for now". He knows being truly unlimited is what keep Sprint above water.. so if he does start to throttle or cap data.. I think it will be a because he has to.
Most rooted users who abuse wireless tether aren't helping keep things unlimited, just keep that in mind.
Notice how the CEO of Verizon just walked away, where as ATT and Sprint CEO's were laughing and shaking hands LOL, Sprint's CEO was just laying down the burns on verizon which made me laugh pretty hard
Sir Hesse was pretty funny there with those two comments. Especially since they weren't like directly rude or anything, they were underhandedly clever.

Sure...
I spoke to sprint advanced tech support and he hinted that it would be a Sprint iPhone, though he admitted he would not put money down on that.
It will NOT be a Sprint iPhone. if it is I will cancel my service with them immediately for two reasons.
1. An IPhone for Sprint = not an industry first (people aren't seeming to grasp this one, though its not necessarily your prediction just what a rep said)
2. The iPhone 4 is already a device that is on the brink of obsolete. In a world where dual cores and 4g are becoming standard, the people buying iPhone for Verizon are asking to get left behind. If Sprint, who has been doing a great job of staying ahead of the game, decides that taking two steps back and calling it an "industry first" is a wise new game plan, I may as well throw in the towel.
Remember, a vast majority of sales reps, really don't know what they are even talking about.

May have been slight exaggeration... but, innovation and making that tiny effort to stay ahead is the main reason I go with sprint. The fact being that the company has been doing a great job leading the game without being the biggest in sales or subscribers would make all this fuss over an obsolete phone, instead of putting that money to better uses, would definitely make me question if I should go to Verizon or ATT for their soon to be superior phones (atrix, bionic, thunderbolt) if that makes sense.
It would be a huge letdown to me if all this hubbub was over a phone two other carriers have.
I really don't think the announcement is going to be the Iphone. I doubt Sprint will even get Iphone on there service until the Iphone 5 is out with 4G and a dual core. Anyway this thread was meant to be a joke. See, the OP said that Sprint's big announcement will be that the Steelers won the Super Bowl, which would not be making the impossible, possible. I hope the Packers win just because they beat my Eagles and the Eagles actually should have won since they lost by 5 and the Pro Bowl field goal kicker missed 2 FG which would have been 6 points and the win. I guess I could take a little more pride in losing by so little to the eventual SB champs.
I highly doubt Sprint is going to spend the money to get the Iphone on their service. Just Google how much Verizon will spend on Iphone. If Sprint does just expect some serious rate hikes on your next plan.

My posts are simply at my infernal irritation at people desperately clinging to hope that its an iPhone (which I admit to being a very biased, avid iPhone hater), and the relentless "My sales rep said...." comments. Odds are, if anyone in the public REALLY knew? EVERYONE in the public would know. It's called a leak champ. haha.

So, let's hope it's an HTC device that does something amazing hopefully...once again, please no trolling just passing on the info I received from my store when the Sprint vendor came in to setup a display at the mobile store in my store.

Not saying he's making $ off of you, but I guarantee you he thought that by telling you some "inside" information you'd stick around and buy something.

This is the announcement
Its pre-beta-5G.
But it's only available on select planets in the solar system.
A premium $50 a month data fee will be charged to your plan whether you can access it or not.

Actually, realistically, retooling the iphone for Sprint would take minimal effort. No iphone is or ever will be branded, so basically the Verizon one is simply a "cdma iphone" programmed for Verizon. I'm not HOPING for this as the announcement, as I actually switched to android from an iphone, and I'm happy I did, so I don't care either way about a Sprint i-turd. Just saying it would take very little to do it.

I like the thought, but
The only thing that's going to get through to them is their pocketbook. If noone buys in or leaves them high and dry then they'll change! Until then the're gonna keep trying to make the most profit they can with minimal overhead(which is the way of every company in the world some worse than others)!
Yep, and the more we yell about it, the better.
Yelling, or threatening, at AT&T isn't going to do any good. If customers left in droves, then yes, AT&T would feel it in their pocketbooks and take action. However, the likelihood of that actually happening is tiny, and not in the numbers necessary to get the point across.
However, what CAN hurt AT&T is bad press. They already suffer from a poor consumer image. I posted over at androidforums.com (I can't post links yet but it's "Twitter hashtag to protest..." in the Atrix 4G forum) about protesting the price. If all of a sudden there was a single, unified twitter hashtag (@'ed at @ATT of course) that reprehended AT&T for their greed then that would garner their attention. Especially if within that tweet we let it be known that what they did is specifically why we're not getting the Atrix.
As lame as it is, a trending hashtag can be a big thing in the eyes of P.R.
The Atrix for $200 w/ two year is reasonable. $500 for the laptop dock is ridiculous. The Atrix for $200 and the laptop dock for $300 w/ 2gb plan and tethering is simply absurd.
I was thinking of staying with AT&T when the Atrix was announced at CES, but I may be looking to switch to Verizon now and picking up the Bionic.

In a roundabot way, yes, I disagreed with you while agreeing with you.
I think if everyone yells their own random thing at AT&T and makes their own random hashtags then it will just be lots of white noise.
If there's a sense of organization and unity, easily brought about by an emerging "Trending Topic" (thru hashtags), then I think AT&T will be a lot more receptive to hearing it. But yeah, we're on the same side here. Sorry if I came off as dissenting--I didn't mean to.

either way, i literally yelled at at&t about the dock pricing.
oh and i asked if they knew how much the hd multimedia dock would cost (standalone) and they couldnt give me a price
Excellent move Now if any of those reps actually had the power to change any of this then we'd be on our way. I still like the phone but I am sure going to wait it out now to see what else comes around. Man, I wish I would have taken off for the wing bowl.

That's brilliant. I think yelling at any AT&T Employees is great! AS LONG AS you make sure you let them know that you are not yelling at them, the employee, but you are very upset with the company and that they should report to their superior about it.
Gosh, I have no idea why I'm so riled up about a phone and its accessory. Granted, my birthday is right around the corner and this news completely derailed what I had planned. Oh well. I just hope that we can cause enough uproar so that there might be real action taken.

Well I posted a not so nice comment on the AT&T Facebook page about the pricing of the dock and their lack of concern for their customers that keep them in business, and their already horrible reputation. It would be good for all of us to post something there to make them notice.
I did not want the laptop docking station. I have maxed out my Captivate....it needs more ram and more speed which is what the Atrix has. I was going to be the first to get it, now I have to think about it and look at other options so I can't say for sure what I will do other than post more comments on their Facebook page.

If anything I would say google would do everything they could to stay unlimited. Have you seen their strategy for their own fiber opic network or their stance on net neutrality?

ROFL this is definitely some mind blowing news. Wow I just woke up am I dreaming this. I'm suprised motorola is that cheap 12 billion makes me wonder why tmobile was more expensive 39 billion motorola has been around a lot longer and I thought there sales in multiple markets were pretty good
Anyone else think Google is going to buy the rest of the android team. ( Samsung, HTC)
It could be good, our future phones software will come directly from google & not be chopped and screwed like they are now.
I doubt apple would try to sue google if that happens.
This is crazy, I can only imagine how big Google will be 10 years from now, now they have some serious patents and will always have ad money, and that will only grow in the long run.

that will never happen... those companies are very happy right now however. the patents from motorola secure androids future against attacks from microsoft and apple, which is great for companies like samsung and HTC who are heavily invested in android
Just got my Note 4 a couple of weeks ago, but this article has me a little worried. Looks like Sprint is hemorrhaging money.

Don't forget Japanese company Softbank bought Sprint. They have very deep pockets. They will turn this thing around.

I read a similar article at cnet yesterday. Remember they are just getting started. I believe that the Japanese company will get sprint turned around. The article I read stated they are back to gaining instead of losing customers. That's a good sign.

UPS... When I was 20 years old (1978)I went through the hiring process with them. I show up at the last pre hire meeting... I was told... Hey, your only 20? Well you can't drive for us but you can load packages. They screwed up.
Anyway, yes 2k people are going to lose a job let's hope those that do are the idiots that don't have a clue. Sprint still has a lot of them.

Yeah... Let's keep the political discussions off of XDA. Not the place for such hot topics. Thanks.

And they are making customers fuming with note 4 zagg issue. As of right now I will NOT recommend sprint. They have not changed their behavior from 10 years ago. Same b.s. that gave them a bad rap. I am really regretting moving to sprint.
I bought my phone outright. And am really considering selling it paying off phone and going elsewhere.
Or just keeping it and taking phone to another carrier.
I hope they go bankrupt. Maybe then they will listen to their customers.
AS FOR ME.....GIVE ME LIBERTY OR GIVE ME DEATH

I've been with sprint for ten years now... Through the good times and the bad... What I am trying to convey is let's hope that sprint is getting it's act together... Seem to be... Fingers crossed...

Hopefully Sprint turns around. I don't like the idea of limited data with the other carriers. T-mobile dies look good... But it's not much cheaper than the plan I have now.

Not a Facebook chump... I don't do that "social" crap like most of you all (a little southern lingo there). End of conversation...
Ok, this is explaining why their customer care service is not working after 9:00 pm anymore...
It's 2014 and you can't use data and voice at the same time.
Only at Sprint.

This isn't exactly true..... I'm sure Sprint probably doesn't want you to be able to do it but my daughter's both have sprint phones. EVO LTE and a Motorola Photon and believe it or not they both can use data and talk at the same time.
