Together with their 4G partner Clearwire, Sprint has been hard at work since 2008 slowly rolling out the first 4G wireless network in the United States. But the question has always remained: what good is a 4G network if there are no 4G devices available to use with it? According to an article on Forbes, Sprint has now …
Considered yourself warned and take this information with a grain of salt. While the At&t rumor has a little more evidence to back it up (FCC filings showing their 3G bands), a new rumor is circling the web saying that the Nexus One will be coming to Sprint sometime in the future. This …
Back on Friday Sprint released a maintenance update for customers using the Samsung Moment.

In addition to Sprint’s big announcement coming January 6th before CES, it appears as though they could have another announcement, another Android device!

Barron’s Weekly Newspaper has published a report stating that Sprint is finally turning things around after its disastrous merger with Nextel. This helped their stock value this week.
