[BC] BOOST Mobile

[Broadcast List USER]

Boost Mobile is Sprint/Nextel.

The Sprint side is doing OK, the Nextel side isn't getting the  
refarming done REQUIRED by the FCC agreement they made.

I'm not sure I would go with them, seeing I could go with a pre paid  
plan with Verizon or AT&T.

Just understand you are going into an agreement with an  
underperforming company.

I am not saying I wouldn't do it in some markets.  Since there is no  
contract, there is only the cost of the phone to lose.

OH, NEXTEL SUCKS.  MCI DROPPED OUT OF INVESTING IN THEM BECAUSE THE  
BUSINESS PLAN SUCKED, AND THERE IS NOT ENOUGH SPECTRUM FOR IT TO  
WORK.  IT DOESN'T WORK, AND IT WON'T.  THE REFARMING COULD WORK, BUT  
NEXTEL IS NOT COMING THROUGH.  WITH THE DOWNTURN IN THE ECONOMY...
