Sprint Celebrating First Total Net Wireless Subscriber Growth in Three Years


Wow!  This has been a long time coming for Sprint.  The nation’s third largest carrier is finally able to deliver some good news to the rest of the industry.  Somehow, we can’t help but think Android has played an integral role in the turnaround.  Focusing on customer service and offering highly competitive rate plans are nothing next to the power of the EVO 4G.  Ok, so we’re not completely serious here.  Read on to see some of Sprint’s noteworthy bullet points from the second quarter of this year (Q210).

  • Delivered positive net postpaid subscriber growth on the CDMA network and for the Sprint brand; best ever year-over-year improvement in net postpaid subscriber results
  • Achieved tenth consecutive quarter of improvement in Customer Care Satisfaction and First Call Resolution; recognized by American Customer Satisfaction Index as most improved company in customer satisfaction, across all industries, in the last two years
  • Generated consolidated Adjusted OIBDA* of $1.5 billion in the quarter; maintained strong liquidity with a cash and cash equivalents balance of $4.3 billion after retiring all 2010 note maturities; year-to-date Free Cash Flow* of $1.2 billion

Sprint picked up a total of around 111,000 net subscribers over the quarter and posted their  best ever postpaid churn at 1.85 percent.  The company achieved its best year-over-year quarterly improvement in postpaid gross subscriber additions in more than five years.  Read the full press release by heading to Sprint’s investor site!

Rumor: HTC Desire HD Coming this Fall

We’re barely a month removed from the release of the EVO 4G so that means it’s time to look down the road at HTC’s plans.  According to a few rumors hitting the internet today, the handset maker is prepping a follow-up to their much loved Desire.  Called the HTC Ace or Desire HD, it sounds like we could be getting a mashup of the Legend and EVO later this fall.

Rumored specs include a 1GHz processor, an 8-megapixel camera with HD video recording, and 4GB memory.  Other goodies include Xvid playback, SRS surround sound, and automatic face tracking.  Being that this is said to run Android 2.2, Adobe Flash 10 support is also expected.  Oh, I almost forgot!  The form factor is listed as uni-body aluminum design.  Sexy!


Of course, HTC has yet to confirm the phone, let alone make any announcements.  Rest assured that we’ll be more than happy to pass the details along once they are unearthed.

HTC’s first look at the EVO 4G for Sprint

HTC sure does know how to make sexy phones and while I am more than happy with the size and contours of my Nexus One, I think the EVO is pretty tempting. The huge screen, red accents, and latest generation of Sense, put together, equal what could be a phone without peer. I’m more than a little concerned about WiMax coverage in my area, but It’s been a while since I tried it. I’m getting ahead of myself. Let’s enjoy the video.

Sprint’s HTC EVO 4G: It Sizzles?

I was just perusing through Sprint’s developers website and came across something kinda strange. On the site, Sprint’s upcoming 4G powerhouse device was listed with all of its glorious specs. However, the title of it threw me off. It was called the “HTC EVO 4G Sizzle.”

No, this is not Photoshopped. Anyone have any thoughts as to what this is all about? It’s probably either a typo, or someone messing around. Either way, it’s good for a laugh.

See for yourself…

The list goes on. It is even rumored that the EVO will have the capability to run voice and data at the same time, like GSM networks. Sprint says that feature is still in the testing. The official place for EVO action is on Sprint’s website. There are a couple videos and a great picture gallery in Engadget’s write up.

My pockets are drooling over this one. I picked up the Hero when it came out, but have been anxiously awaiting something faster and even more sexy. This is it. I will be very tempted to pick this up when it comes out this summer.

No specific dates or prices have been announced so far.
