Cricket in San Diego...Launching shortly!!! I've spoken with several insiders with Metro and LA, and it has been slowed down in terms of their rush to get it launch.... I wonder why? Hesitation from the investors? Because in SD, Cricket rush every bit of resource to get it up and ready (BTW, its not quite ready IMO) to launch before 2007
Cricket in San Diego...Launching shortly!!!
Cricket in San Diego...Launching shortly!!! i don't think so. it would be great, but i'm just waiting for a forced buyout right now. from what i hear metro doesn't have a lot of cash, which is why it is taking them so long to build out and launch Los Angeles, and why the coverage is so spotty in their areas.
Cricket in San Diego...Launching shortly!!! I'm not in SD, i'm in Denver just curious about how customers felt about the launch!!!
Cricket in San Diego...Launching shortly!!! I will ask them about it....
Cricket in San Diego...Launching shortly!!! Well, this is what you said..."aparantly the "tripod antennas on roof" are due to special requirements by the city to decrease visual impact of towers." So apparently you called them tripod antennas too. And the article you linked us to, refers to some cell sites, using NextG technology but not all. You are correct, cellular, also known as main cell sites uses panel antennas. Panels antennas can be hidden but it depenRAB on a lot of factors which I will not bored you with. Cricket has done a great JOB with their facilities and I would say that they have a great management. When you say other carriers and big tower (Monopoles) you would be surprise with how many there are. Granted no at much as the east coast but there are still lots. Anyways, I am not here to hate on Cricket, because I do believe they have a place here in San Diego. I also believe in their business practice I am skeptical about the reception and NEXTG. I hope they last, and I hope they continue to expand here in SD.
Cricket in San Diego...Launching shortly!!! no the phone might not activate ota for a lot of reasons, including cricket not having the subsidy lock code for non cricket phones as to the antennas... i gave you the link in my post already. you're the one that called them tripod antennas. i have no idea what they actually look like, but all cellular base antennas should be panels, i believe that is the most efficient antenna design and could be hidden quite easily. just cricket, and probably most of the cellular carriers there probably don't have big towers coming out of the ground extending high into the sky.
Cricket in San Diego...Launching shortly!!! A roaming agreement would be great. Then when I leave Pittsburgh for a few days, I might still have service.
Cricket in San Diego...Launching shortly!!! I'm curious to hear more about how the launch went, for a customers perpestive
Cricket in San Diego...Launching shortly!!! I think its inevitable they will both emerge, or have some sort of roaming agreement...
Cricket in San Diego...Launching shortly!!! If your phone wont activate over OTA... something (network) is rejecting the phone or vice versa but the end result is the same, no? When I say end result, I'm referring to the fact that you won't have any service since your phone won't activate...?
