Link: Excite News - Sprint Nextel to Cut Jobs, Close Stores.
Is the FutureLawyer a jinx? No sooner did I become a Sprint monthly subscriber than Sprint announces plans to close stores and fire employees. Oh, well. I knew I kept my Verizon Wireless account open for a reason other than I had a year to go on the contract. I went with Sprint because I didn't want to wait a year for Verizon to decide to offer the Centro. Verizon Wireless is notorious for testing and testing and waiting even longer before agreeing to support new tech. Actually, having two wireless companies is no more expensive than one. I support cell phones for my spouse, kids and secretary, and have EvDO cards for two computers. Some are with one company, and others are with the other. Always hedge your bets in the wireless world. You never know who is getting fired next.
I'm a jinx with Sprin too! A few years ago I had Sprint. They let me have a trial period before I signed the contract. During the trial period, my service was fine. Within a few days of signing the contract, it no longer worked at my house. I had to get another phone and pay for two phones for a year. Never trust Sprint.
