Wireless posted year-over-year revenue growth of 17% and reported a 19% increase in Adjusted EBITDA*. In the quarter, ARPU* came in at a strong $62, a modest increase over both the year-ago period and the first quarter. PCS also continued to achieve solid subscriber gains with the total base increasing by 897,000 subscribers in the quarter. The subscriber gains included 505,000 direct additions and 392,000 additions from our wholesale and affiliate partners. Sprint also acquired 91,000 subscribers from an affiliate during the quarter. This acquisition is not reflected in either direct or affiliate additions.

Thats a pretty high churn. But a nice arpu.

The churn is improving. Much lower than the 2.9% last quarter. Also an increase of 900 new cell sites over last quarter is pretty substantial.

Also they now cover a total of 251 million pops. An increase of 5 million over last quarter. Vision customers have also greatly increased.

Churn is still high. But like I said arpu is nice.

Actually, their churn will probably beat all nationals but Verizon and Nextel. It will surely be better than T-Mobile and AT&T. Their ARPU will be 2nd only to Nextel, more than Verizon, Cingluar, and possibly T-Mobile by a wide margin.

Nice, Sprint PCS seems to be rebounding. They had a good quarter this time it sounds like.
