by TV James July 25, 2008 9:47 AM PDT: Well, you really don't need to have any towers when your coverage is as bad as Sprint's. Maybe the towers can be used by a company that provides a signal to its customers.

Would someone please spare the world the wasted money and just pull the plug on this dead horse?; Like this Reply to this comment
