All it needs to do is to offer more attractive products and service than Nextel or Voicestream. Doesn't look like that is happening. Well, NOK has been no help in providing attractive CDMA phones, have they? The 6185, rejected outright by BAM and ATI, was delayed by Sprint throughout August due to bugs. And other than the "tri-band" it is just a rehash of a 2-year-old design. Meanwhile, the Koreans are going to eat your finnish lunch. Already, the Samsung SCH-3500 beats out anything NOK has for CDMA or TDMA. LG soon to follow. And what was that other Asian country with a GDP greater than any melanin-deprived Euroland? Oh yes, Japan, going CDMA full-throttle. As I recall, they have a few experts in consumer electronics in that country. 64Kbps before the year is out. Oh, but tero says data isn't necessary anyway? oh, sorry, why don't i invest in nok? Hmmm, web enabled phone this millenium for the US market? Not from Nok. Do you belong to a religion named GSM? is that a requirement for finns? you play games with your own head, dismissing the law of large numbers as suits your fancy inre VSTR vs. PCS, but then wielding it like a machete when considering the fact that CDMA's growth rate is superior to that of GSMs. your logical errors have cost you and all who follow your rants from participating in the rise of the number one stock this year on the S&P500--QCOM. I suppose if you followed basketball you would have missed michael jordan. oh that's right, in finland they play hockey, so you would have missed Gretzky, nichts?

What is the rationale behind Sprint's P/E premium when it keeps underperforming former socialistic state monopolies? Stay tuned. I think the rationale may have something to do with a company which is currently adding between 20-25% of total new subs in the largest cell-phone market in the world. A market which is only beginning the conversion to digital. The real question is when the US will hit the sweetspot of cell-phone growth.....I think that PCS will be at the center when it ocurrs. This doesnt mean that I think VSTR will do badly....a rising tide raises all boats. Slacker
