view the rest of the posts450k x 500 bucks a piece to apple - sprint just spent about 2.2 billions.........company is only worth 6 billions........<3 days apple gets more from sprint than the value of the entire company?
it's 450K times $600 not $500 a piece...Sprint will apply the $199 for the 4s to your bill....
But your $2.2B missed by a decimal....
Actually it's 450,000 times $600 and that's $270,000,000...This is after a few days...

do you really think Sprint is paying full retail price? also 79.95 x 12 months = 960 x 450,000 = 431 Billion
Who cares how many phones you sell, if no one is going to give you the money to build your network, your screwed.
math is 220million.
You expected him to understand math? He only runs a trailer park don't make it to confusing for him.

Lastly, even existing user who moves to iPhone results in helping Sprint sell additional services - they have indicated that their revenue per user will double with iPhone. So if the ARPU moves from $50 to $100 > they will also get incremental $50/user/month - which amounts to additional $600 per user in one year > they will have an upside of $1200 per contract, out of which they have to pay $300 to ATT (in addition to $199 sales price), so where is the downside?
How can Sprint's ARPU double when you only have to pay $79.00 a month for unlimited plan???
Please respond in BIG detail how Sprint's ARPU is mathematically possible???
Thanks

its time for Apple to buy sprint/nextel/clearwire.
And why would they do that??.Keep in Mind most of the Honchos at Clearwire are EX Sprint.
Same disasterous mind set.Apple protects its brand-Unlike Sprint
Apple is rocking - and looking forward to the payment from Sprint........
