When can I sign up???

Seriously, this sounds awesome...

When have the cable companies provided a bargain?

I have Comcast for TV and broadband. They constantly push their
VoIP service, which is most notable for its high price. Presumably
you will get Sprint's mediocre service instead of Comcast's terrible
service.

I am a late commer to this news, but with the merger of Alltel and Verizon [an Alltel customer], I was looking foward to Cox providing cell service since I didn't want to do buisness with Verizon. Now it looks like I won't be doing business with Cox because of Sprint's involvment. [Jumping from the fry pan to the fire thing]. I guess the only thing left is AT&T cell [UGH!!!]
