I am willing to bet there are 4 people signing up for Sprint at the kiosk right next to you. Go back to the mall.

The engineer guy is right. It isn't going anywhere and 55 million other people agree.
Sprint isn't going anywhere. The company just needs focus. The old CEO had to many things going at once plus he botched the merger with Nextel. Two opposite worlds were forced together without a whole lot of thought. It is slowly working itself out internally.

The churn (AKA customers leaving) is mostly on the Nextel side of the house, and even those numbers are inflated because a lot of those accounts are being converted to Sprint CDMA accounts and the people using the hybrid handsets.

Having a new, fresh CEO come in and shake things up is exactly what this company needs.
My advice to you is Sunday Ticket. Its $350 for the full HD package but if you watch football every weekend it breaks down to about $20 a week. Not bad if you ask me.

Anyways, live football is just too expensive. I can spend the $350 for an entire your of EVERY game in HD, beer, my couch, a close restroom or I can spend $350+ on garbage seats, $8 bottle of beer, a long line in the restroom. Its a no-brainer IMO
Jon is right. Whats the point of spending all the money on a gaming console with no games.

I mean come on...the biggest news about the PS3 lately is that it will soon be able to play divx movies and can print to a Canon printer. Woo hoo...
Thats awesome! So it can play DivX and also print on a Canon printer! Sweet

If only they had some decent games......
Well, I said it once, I'll say it again!

R.I.P.

Beta, Memory Stick, Mini Disc, Blu Ray, and yes PS3

PS3 is the next Sega Saturn. Released to soon, way over priced (and still losing money per unit), complex programming keeping third party developers away, and the most important...a lack of a gaming library to keep people interested even after a year on the shelves.

And for the clowns talking about Toshiba losing money on units, well feast your eyes my friends:

"The PlayStation 3's initial production cost is estimated to have been US$805.85 for the 20 GB model and US$840.35 for the 60 GB model; however, they were priced at US$499 and US$599, respectively. The high manufacturing costs meant that every unit was sold at a loss of approximately $250, contributing to Sony's games division posting an operating loss of ¥232.3 billion (US$1.97 billion) in the fiscal year ending March 2007."
I am an engineer with Sprint and can tell you that the WiMax build out has not stopped or slowed. The joint venture deal with Clearwire is the only thing that faded out. There are to many contracts in place with various equipment vendors (Nokia and Samsung most notably) to just scrap the entire project.
You cannot say use the number Sony promotes and not the one Paramount promotes you idiots.

As for the moron that wrote "Transformers did not win" over and over you sound like a child trying to pretend something didn't happen. Whatever you gotta tell yourself to sleep at night...
They can watch it just fine on DVD.

I would be even more pissed if I payed $400+ now and in a years (or less) time can't watch all the content on new movies.
@ BEN:

Kudos to you!! I am one that thinks you are slightly biased in the above article but I am happy to see you have the rocks to come back and respond to the posts. It says a lot about a person. Good on ya!
Let the hive mind of Engadget get that for you.
"I'm looking for a solid state drive, around 32 to 64GB, for use in my web server. The drive will contain my web sites and the operating system, either Windows Server 2008 R2 or Ubuntu. Large storage is handled by a separate RAID array, so capacity is not an issue. Rather, I am looking for the fastest, longest-lasting, and most reliable drive under $150 that is suitable to my application. Any thoughts? Thanks!"
