The land grab in the US is wireless data. Virgin territory. That is where you should compare Sprint with their kin.

Here is where I agree with Maurice. Sprint is screwing up. They are absolutely NOT exploiting their technical advantage. To the average consumer, what is the difference between Sprint data service and that offered by T-Mobile, Cingular, or ATT? In this area, Sprint (and VZ who are even more pathetic) should price data at the lowest rate they can and get the greatest number of subscribers possible. They aren't competing with similar technologies as the carriers in Korea are doing. They have an advantage. Failing to exploit advantages is the number one error in business and war. Both result in prolonged battles.

OTOH, perhaps Sprint IS exploiting their advantage to business customers. I'd like to know this for certain and I'd like to know why they aren't doing this with general consumers.
