This acquisition doesn't really make much sense. Beside the whole CDMA thing, there's also considering how Google has really remained a software company all these years. People expected an actual google phone - what we're getting is a phone OS. This isnt a bad thing, I just dont think they'd be interested in actually an entire carrier. <br><br>And for the record, I love my Sprint service, so from personal experience I dont see where the complaining comes from. Sprint has dropped maybe a call/month. My at&t phone, closer to once a day (I use the sprint phone more, too). But maybe there's more than I can know.]]></description><dc:creator><![CDATA[John P]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Nov 12th 2007 9:00AM</pubDate></item><item><title><![CDATA[Comments on Google to acquire Sprint Nextel for Mobile WiMax?]]></title><link>http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/12/google-to-acquire-sprint-nextel-for-mobile-wimax/</link><guid isPermaLink="true">http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/12/google-to-acquire-sprint-nextel-for-mobile-wimax/</guid><description><![CDATA[I hope to god that this doesn't happen.
