JD Powers recently awarded Sprint & Verizon a tie as the #1 network in the West.

“Highest Call Quality Performance Among Wireless Cell Phone Users in the West Region

"Sprint has shown sequential improvement since the 2008 study, outpacing the industry average."
"Disclaimer: Sprint Nextel received the highest numerical score among wireless
service providers in the proprietary J.D. Power and Associates2009 Wireless Call
Quality Performance StudySM - Volume 1. Study based on 27,754 consumer responses
measuring five providers in the West region (AZ, CA, CO, ID, IA, MN, MT, ND, NE,
NM, NV, OR, SD, UT, WA, WY) and measures opinions of wireless users about the
call quality of their service. Proprietary study results are based on
experiences and perceptions of consumers surveyed in July - December 2008. Your
experiences may vary."

Here is a link of other Sprint Accolades.

The turnaround is clear here and the reason why PRE is launching with Sprint is indisputable.  The best phone on the best network.  We aren’t going to have the bandwidth issues ATT had and still has with the iPHONE…you will be able to surf the web at a very brisk pace (where there is 3G coverage).

1.5 years of putting back the focus to the company on a few core objectives is bearing fruit.  Stock up and soon subscriber growth will return.  Value beats out great commercials in this economic environment.

Opera is a common name among people who have an interest in improving their browser experience.  Opera now ships standard on windows mobile phones and will hopefully be standard on many other phones as well.  For example, the Samsung Instinct can now adopt Opera in newer updates.

Opera is great for several reasons:

1.  A full HTML experience browser with zoom in/out capabilities for a small screen.

2.  Easy access to bookmarks and management of the booksmarks.

3.  Integration of web pages with regular phone functions like dialing a number from a web search

4.  Integration of your desktop Opera experience with your phone to sync many data points

Opera provides a better browser experience overall than standard shipped web browsers on many phones.  Opera on a Blackberry far surpasses the Blackberry browser.  The best part is that it’s free for the users to use and download.

Opera can be downloaded at mini.opera.com.  Get it and your use of the web on the phone will jump dramatically.
