Sprint PCS goes CSS

Sprint PCS goes CSS 11/19/2003 12:31 AM

The Sprint PCS site has relaunched, using XHTML 1.0 transitional and CSS. It's another great example of a mostly web standards compliant commerical/corporate; there are a few validation errors thanks to a quarrelsome CMS. France Rupert is the lead developer behind the new site and is promising a detailed writeup of the process and challenges behind the redesign. France hails from Kansas City, so hopefully we'll be able to get him along to a web meetup in the not too distant future.

In related news, WaSP have an excellent interview up with Dan Cederholm, lead developer behind the high profile Fast Company and Inc.com web standards redesigns and squire of Simple Bits. The interview has a lot of great anecdotes about how switching to standards saved both time and money.

The New AT&T Wireless Is Sprint

The New AT&T Wireless Is Sprint 05/18/2004 03:04 PM
This isn't a huge surprise, considering that everyone expected this move back in March, but AT&T has made it official that they've signed an MVNO agreement with Sprint to use their network for their own wireless carrier offering. Just like Sprint's deal with Virgin Mobile, Sprint gives AT&T the network, and AT&T does all the branding. They plan to offer bundled offerings that tie the mobile phone service to their local, long distance and VoIP offerings - all of which makes sense. What still hasn't be made clear, however, is if they'll go back to using the AT&T Wireless name. They get the rights back as soon as the current AT&T Wireless completes the deal to be acquired by Cingular (late this year). However, the AT&T Wireless name has such a bad reputation these days, they may be better off not doing so. Besides, the level of confusion among consumers probably isn't worth it. Still, it is amusing to trace the history of AT&T's wireless offerings from a startup they bought, to something they spun out, to something they wish they had again. Of course, maybe they get the last laugh. They got a lot of cash in spinning out AT&T Wireless and now they'll have a wireless offering without actually having to run a network. Either way, it's a bit amusing to see what will more or less amount to a "new entrant" in the space just as everyone was calling for the entire US wireless carrier market to consolidate.

Sprint will include a Wi-Fi user interface on its Novatel wireless data cards: The feature just offers a single interface--users must still use a separate Wi-Fi card or their laptop's built-in Wi-Fi capability to connect. Having a single interface means that customers will have the same experience whether they are using a Sprint-owned hotspot, a hotspot from an operator that Sprint has a roaming agreement with, or the PCS network, said a Sprint PCS spokeswoman. A single interface like this is surely helpful but it seems that at this stage the market is ready for tighter integration that includes the access on a single card as well....

Sprint PCS Keeps Roaming, Isn't Building 07/16/2004 08:19 PM
Sprint PCS quietly sloughs off its own building plans?: This article notes that Sprint PCS said it would have access via 2,100 access points within a year. True. But they told me that 1,300 of those would be locations that they built out themselves. In this Wi-Fi Planet article linked above, the general manager of wireless LAN service for Sprint PCS -- not the person in this role last summer -- said, We are not deploying those ourselves. But that's not entirely accurate: they're building Truckstop.net locations via their managed services division, and then Truckstop.net is operating those locations and allowing Sprint PCS to roam on them. So they're not deploying, but they are building and supporting....

Sprint, Nextel to Merge

Sprint, Nextel to Merge 12/19/2004 03:18 PM
Sprint and Nextel announced their $40 billion merger of equals: Sprint's CDMA technology has been a block to offer push-to-talk (PTT) services that Nextel has made great profits on. Nextel has no migration plan for next-generation data services, although they've been testing approaches that aren't integrated with their iDEN voice technology. Sprint has already committed to spending billions on 3G high-speed voice and data systems. In seemingly unrelated news a few days ago, Cingular dropped its challenge to the FCC proposal that would allow Nextel to reorganize its scattered chunks of frequency, giving them new contiguous spectrum in exchange for paying for the cost of moving the public-safety incumbents to Nextel-vacated frequencies. It's a multi-billion-dollar deal that the FCC offered, and Verizon Wireless and Cingular Wireless now no longer oppose it, and one would expect Sprint and Nextel to accept the deal, although Nextel wants to pay substantially less. The new Sprint Nextel is at a rough parity with the subscriber base of Cingular-post-AT&T Wireless acquisition and Verizon Wireless (all on their lonesome). Sprint Nextel will have 35 million subscribers, Cingular 47 million, and Verizon Wireless 42 million. T-Mobile becomes a distant fourth (about 16 million subscribers) with no data upgrade plan in sight. This didn't elude the Wall Street Journal, which filed this report in which T-Mobile notes that worldwide they have about 70 million cell phone users which allows them to compete on scale for handsets and network components....

What Sprint told us last week

What Sprint told us last week 12/08/2003 05:57 PM
Almost forgot to mention that we met with Sprint last week and was able to glean the following nuggets of information: 1. They still haven't decided whether or not to carry Sony Ericsson's T608 cellphone. Basically, Sony Ericsson quit making CDMA phones (at least for North America) and they are trying to sort out who would support the phone if it broke, etc. Also, even if they do decide to offer the T608, they haven't settled on whether or not it would have Bluetooth enabled (though we'd love to see how long it took someone to hack that). 2. They're thinking about carrying Samsung's i600 Smartphone. 3. The PCS Vision network is due to get a bump up in speed early next year. Sprint is going to improve the compression, which should mean faster download speeds. 4. Sprint should finally support SMS (rather than the cumbersome web interface they have...

Sprint has officially unveiled the Samsung i600 smartphone, a Windows Mobile 2003 clamshell (the first Windows Mobile unit for Sprint PCS, they say). Their website has it listing for $470 and it should be in stores next month. This is essentially the same phone released last year by Verizon, so don't expect a whole lot to be different than that (or any other Windows Mobile unit, really).

Sprint Launches Samsung SPH-A700 (aka
MM-A700) 08/16/2004 09:49 AM

Sprint has finally gotten the Samsung SPH-A700 up for sale - 400 bucks free and clear, or $250 with a two-year indenture. The SPH-A700 is a nice enough clamshell, if a little too round and oddly-colored for my taste, but its main claim to fame is its ability to work with Sprint's MobiTV offering, the streaming video service that works over Sprint's existing Vision platform. What I've seen of MobiTV hasn't really impressed me, but as a service that's available everywhere, it's pretty much the only game in town right now (AT&T Wireless's EDGE-based offerings is likely-superior (I haven't seen it), but it's only available in two markets at the moment).

Motorola V3 Razr is Hot

Motorola V3 Razr is Hot 09/02/2004 09:48 AM

Hey, is that a picture of me holding the new Motorola V3 RAZR phone at last night's Yankee's game? Why yes, it is! Is it also proof of my inability to use the Fuji F440 I'm reviewing to focus on something in the foreground? Why, it's that, too!

I didn't get a chance to mess around with it for long - it isn't mine for review, sadly, but someone from another magazine - but boy oh boy is that one sexy phone. It's almost sort of big when you look at it from the front, but then you close it and look at its profile and go all sort of knock-kneed. And that flat metal keypad is heart, too. It's a very nice phone, at least from the want to sort of rub it all over sense.

The gold game is pretty fun, too.
