Stories from the battle ground
A petite woman enters our unusually busy Sprint store three minutes before we close. Virtually ignoring the other patrons in the store she very impatiently and abruptly walks up to one of my fellow associates who is in the process of a transfer of liability for another group of loyal Sprint customers. Mind you that we have been dealing with our systems crashing over and over again due to the upgrades performed this past weekend. The petite woman, who appears to be almost in tears, interrupts my fellow Sprint warrior and barks, “My phone is not working.” After two seconds of awkward looks from the group of customers and the associate, the associate, very politely, tells the customer that someone will be with you as soon...

People are stupid
a woman just came in yelling at me saying how we should repair her phone because we are a store. and that we should tell people that we are not a service center. all i can say is that we say that every day to every customer. plus she was trying to fix a boost phone. just shell out the $59.99 and buy a new one, they are cheaper than any nextel at retail cost.
The REAL use for a PRL (long)
PRLs do nothing of the sort. Every tower in the US is associated with an SID. A SID is the identifying number of a particular city on a particular carrier. Lets say youre in Chicago, Verizon has a SID, sprint has a SID, cingular has one, etc. etc. Any new towers that go up in the limits of Chicago are automatically assigned to that SID. Your phone picks them up, because they broadcast, it doesnt need to be "told they're there".
The ONLY (yes, ONLY) thing a PRL does is assign a hierarchy of importance to all carriers in an area. Using chicago again, if youre on sprint, of course sprint would be number one, m...

Unfortunately, AT&T has chosen an option many marketers chose. The company just lost its CMO (Chief Marketing Office) and has been left to make new decisions... decisions prior leadership opted against, for good reason.
Now, during prime-time advertising, AT&T is running so-called "Muted Ads". These are advertisements that run all the time, but are a special copy that run without any spoken words, and usually have music tuned to a very low level. The goal is to catch t...

Why is sprint so mean?
But I guess ppl like them.. so I will continue to make money off of sprint ripping their customers off!
Myspace backgrounds on Mogul?
What might seem to be a good question
So the question is, can account modifications affect the signal of the handset?
I know this sounds odd, and if I didn't know better I would say no right away and that signal is determined strictly on the phone's antenna, battery, ect. But lately I've had alot of complaints, even from my family.
So if anyone on the technical side of Sprint knows, please inform me and tell me how to fix it so I can better serve my clients. Thanks, -Drake

Sprint vs Verizon
Anyways I still want to get away from verizon I dislike their verizon ui because it sucks all the fun out of getting a new phone. I want a multimedia phone with the ability to get online and I'm considering the katana dlx. I really don't know much about sprint could someone give me none kookaid breakdown I would greatly appreciate it. All you get on the verizon forum our kookaid responses.
Also will the 15 vision package work with the dlx, and what will the 15 bucks buy?
I'm seeing a lot of bad press about sprint recently too, including this forum, should I be worried?

Slow d/l speed
I have a Treo 700p and my internet connection is crap... I compared it to an iPhone the other day and the iPhone actually beat my Treo in download speeds (and yes, I live in an EV-DO area--I live in Detroit and have also used it in Chicago with the same results.)
I did a 1 MB mobile speed test on dslreports.com last night and this is what I got:
80 kbit/sec
.65s latency
102.074s d/l time
Is this normal, or do I need to have it checked out? I just hate going into the Sprint Store, having to wait 45 minutes for someone to look at me, then drop my phone off for the day, then spend another 30 minutes getting it back to be told there's nothing wrong...
Thanks.
