Thread: Dan says .. WIMAX is for sprint (NOT?) - Sprint Carrier

Quote:

dan330 2404750 looks like sprint is sticking with wimax... [Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

What is more interesting is the T-mobile connection and where that is going. If Sprint gobbles up T-Mobile, it will be a huge event, and create a lot of questions about the future of the company, CDMA, GSM, Wimax and LTE.

If Sprint takes TMobile does that also mean Sprints coverage gets beefed as well?

i thought tmobile is hspa...not lte

hspa is just a pumped up 3G...

I cant say I am surprised, either way.

They have a network, call it what ever you want, paint it what ever you want, it is still the network they have to use.

LTE is a great technology and I hope we see lte/wimax combined phones in the future.

But there is zero advantages to just repainting your car and calling it something else, it is still your car.

Tmobile has no real plans to build out lte and uses at&t frequencies for some of it voice and data.

I will pull up the exact data tomorrow, it is 10pm and I am still at work, going to go home.
