WOW...

Then run off of Nextel's network. I don't know the answer to the first question though.
...
Ahh. Cool! Thanks! So that makes them part of Sextel (Nint? Sprint/Nextel anyhow!)! Sorry for the bad joke, I just couldn't resist! Nothing personal!
Welcome to Phonescoop users/employees of Boost Mobile!

Boost Mobile has 1 million + subscribers.
Yep... I remember Rich saying something about how he wouldn't make a carrier forum for a carrier that had less than a million subs.
So welcome Boost. 🙂
...
That's the only way I know it has 1 million+, cause of that post you're talking about Rich making 🤣
...
I think you can... I certainly see huge Boost posters in the front window of my local Nextel store, so I don't think they'd be doing that unless you could go in and set up Boost service there.
Might not be all Nextel stores though.

I already have boost service with the i730 and was possibly wanting to upgrade it to the i830 and I know you basically have to purchase the phone outright...was just wondering if anyone knew prices...availability...etc
...
Yea you can buy boost phones at nextel stores. I get that question all the time at work.
...
I MILLION AND GROWING ! Yes, you can get boostmobile handsets at selected Nextel retail outlets...take the time to visit Boostmobile.com and check out the retail link.
...
they had 1 million a while ago by the way. i think last quarter they had 1.3 million people or so. amazing it was only in 13-15 markets now its nationwide. 50 percent of the MOU's were Direct connect a pretty good size number but very suprising. i thought it would be higher becuase the phone side like calling side is a little bit more expensive then normal... oh well ... boost and virgin mobile will be the dominiating prepaid services in the marketplace.
...
how many poeple use boost? 1.2 or so million people in 10 markets. it was expanded to a nationwide status a while ago. 50 percent of MOU was direct connect. and its owned by nextel. boost "roams" on the nextel network.
...
NOT MANY PEOPLE HAVE BOOST MOBILE BEACOUSE ONLY 12 MILLION PEOPLE HAVE NEXTEL WHICH INLUDES BOOST. COMPARED TO THE 50 MILLION WHO HAVE CINGULAR AND AT&T WIRELESS
