"That is because consumers can't understand or don't relate to the ads,
Passikoff said, adding that Sprint needs to more clearly communicate the
advantages of its services.

"It's not about eyeballs anymore," he said."

I don't think any of them actually understand what's wrong with Sprint....

People want a SELLphone that WORKS when they press SEND, not sit there and
blink. Sprint really sucks outside the major metro areas, here.....

The other problem is to take the dog collars off the employees answering
the phones and let THEM make the customers happy when they dial 611. A
customer with a little concession to make him happy is MUCH more profitable
than a customer standing in line at Alltel waiting the churn!

Stupids......LESS ADVERTISING.....MORE INFRASTRUCTURE!

At least they could do is change the PRLs to allow roaming onto Alltel and
Verizon in the DEAD ZONES in SC until they get the towers completed....

They bought Nextel, which has NEVER worked good here. Even the
construction boys with no-dialing walkie talkies can't be called by their
bosses.......for twice the money.

Nextel was a big mistake.
