Why didn’t they just ask Obama for a bailout?

OMG, could you imagine getting download speeds that they have in Japan and korea, if they could apply this to sprint? Imagine an average of 80 mb down

Maybe this would help Sprint build up their network to be worth switching to from Verizon.

I don’t think google would have bought them even if they had the money( which they do). For one gsm would be much easier to deal with not to mention if they got in the carrier business I could see the other carriers not liking that much at all and straining the already strained relationship it has with some of the carriers.

This should be fun… softbank uses TD-LTE for their 4G just like sprint (or if I’m not mistaken their baby clear wire) is trying doing up in like the 2100-2500 range or something like that… I hope this will help them get a huge jump on that

12.5 Billion$, the amount given by Google for Motorola Mobility and its patent… Really a very huge amount… Let us wait and watch the consequences…

It’s a shame Googs doesn’t have $12.5B sitting around.
Now what did they do with that?
