I do not. I do know that Virgin Mobile (owned by sprint) still cannot roam on Verizon.
I almost -- ALMOST -- went with Virgin Mobile when my Verizon contract ran out. $25 / mo for unlimited everything + 300 minutes is a steal, even if it takes a slight hit on coverage! Unfortunately I heard one too many complaints about the Optimus. VM hadn't announced their upcoming Super Awesome Mega Smartphone yet (Huawei?), and I didn't want to keep waiting ... lest I miss out on Verizon's truly-unlimited LTE.
See that's the difference between you and me. I don't spew propoganda.
I have noticed that when you go to other wireless content sites like BGR and HoFo, the AT&T employees are generally ... more ... "enthusiastic" ... about their company. Like, really, really, REALLY "enthusiastic". To the point where you could tell them that you live / work / play in a no-coverage area and they would swear up and down that they're still the better choice.
I was a T-Mobile customer for over a decade. I was always fed up with dropped calls and poor service in both New York City and Dallas on the T-Mobile network. I switched to Sprint recently and I absolutely love it. In my opinion, the unlimited plan is the best among any wireless provider, and I have great coverage and 4G speed at an unbeatable price. I highly recommend anyone considering between the two networks to go with Sprint and avoid T-Mobile at all costs!

I don't follow VM, 300 minutes is not enough for me and the other plans don't offer a value to me.
I don't think you can compare and judge among the larger carriers for wireless phone and data. It can only depend on location and need, and whether or not you want a removable data card.
Like ABC, CBS and NBC... the fare changes from day to day, season to season and year to year. So do people and their requirements.
If you know facts, why haven't you posted them? When are you going to?
"Even good opinions are worth very little unless we hold them in the broad, intelligent, and spacious way." - John Morley[/LEFT]
See there are opinions and then there are lies. I could lie and tell you AT&T and Verizon have the lowest prices but they don't, or I could lie and tell you that AT&T has the most towers and true coverage in the United States, but it doesn't. So my opinions if you want to call them opinions are based on readily available information. I don't have to post what you can find in most major magazines unlike the 3rd rate articles and propoganda blogs you post. Go to any right wing convention and they'll be telling you how Obama is to blame for everything. Kind of sounds like your info. What do you know
I know im new in here. As a truck driver who runs the 15 western states rest assured when I say that in terms of overall coverage, Sprint with their numerous roaming agreements has far superior coverage than any other carrier throughout the US. With that being said their data speed is reduced to 1x for the most part while roaming. They do have some pockets of 3g data roaming in the midwest and southeast. (AR, MS, AL, etc) I know this because I was with them for the last 12 years up until last week when they terminated my contract for excessive data roaming. Yes they can do that if you consistantly exceed their 300 mb roaming cap for 6 consecutive months. And that's even of you have an unlimited data plan. Even while I was roaming on 1x I could still stream Pandora and Iheart radio and believe me that will add up quickly driving across WY, NV, and MT. So be wary of that if you go with Sprint. They did mail a few letters to my house advising me to ease off the roaming. I didnt actually think they would terminate a 12 year loyal customer, but they did. Trust me on everything I have stated right here, right now Sprint has more coverage than any other carrier and that is a fact. At&t is 2nd, Verizon is 3rd, however they do have the largest native network with superb 3g coverage. That's why I have selected them as my new carrier yesterday after a one week trial of T-mobile. Their network is atrocious and dead last in my opinion. Again you could argue Verizon is 2nd because At&t 3g network footprint is not that impressive but neither is Sprint. However both have great voice coverage.
