Sprint was really bad 10 years ago (horrible service, horrible phones) but they've gotten very good in recent years. I just got a Sprint Motorola XPRT and the whole process was incredibly smooth. Called customer service and got my plan upgraded in 5 minutes, went to the Sprint store 30 minutes later and swapped phones. The rep there filled out the rebate for me and transferred all of my numbers from my old phone.

However, unless Sprint has exclusivity, it's committing suicide by buying such a huge pile of iPhones.
 
no, but I used Sprint from like 2004 - 2007. I only switched to get the iPhone, and at the time use a phone contract free.

Most of my family uses Sprint so it'd make sense, but no.
 
It looks like from the very beginning it's been 70/30% on the votes, but I wonder what the #'s look like after the unveiling.

It won't matter because there is not exclusive Sprint phone. That was some blogger guessing.
 
I left Sprint for AT&T for the iPhone 4 but left my wife on Sprint so if the iP5 is exclusive to Sprint I will just port back to Sprint which would be cheaper for me anyway since I have a 25% discount on that account. Good thing is they still have unlimited data too so I won't be sacrificing that option.
 
Not a chance in hell I would. I just returned a SGII from sprint. 3g Data speeds under 200kb/s in full service area. Echoing on phone calls, and just an overall craptastic experience. Sprint has been having terrible network issues lately, and least in the NE. Its like using Edge, if that.

"Yea I have an iphone 5, and I can use it sometimes." No thanks.

Sprint will be gone in 5 years. And they should be.
