    I don't want to diss Sprint as I am a shareholder, however, these numbers arent that great. I don't like how they add affiliates in their totals. Only 624k were direct post paid. That is a dissapointment considering this is a combination of Sprint/Nextel. I wonder what will happen to their ARPU in 1Q with all these SERO plans being added. However, they are outerperforming Cingular whose 4Q included 1 million from TracFone.

    Sprint generates income from affiliates so it's completely appropriate. The methods of counting MVNOs, pre-paid and affiliates are pretty much apples to apples of the other carriers.

    I'm surprised that churn isn't higher. I would have expected higher churn of Nextel subscribers given the buyout and changes.
