the customer doesn't know the difference, so the ads are not there. tech doesn't sell. what sprint needs to do is advertise 911 and you get faster data too. data should not be the focus of the ads at least at the beginning. security does sell, however.

I'll give you one good example. DOCOMO vs KDDI. DOCOMO has kicked the stuffing out of KDDI even though technology wise it's imode @9.6kbps vs KDDI at 64kbps. Reason being, content. imode=lots of content. KDDI=little content. I have a 6035 from VZ. I can surf the net on a limited basis at 14k but speed is not my complaint. It's lack of content, access to all websites and all parts of each website and no downloadable applications. Brew and snaptrack will solve the problem. So they are in no rush right now. All the cool new devices about to come out will also make the difference. It's gonna happen sometime in 02. 100
