Thats because Sprint is near closing shop down, they have the least subscribers anymore and are pulling out of sponsoring nascar due to financial issues... I keep up with these things and sprint more than likely wont be around in about 5 years, or less. AT&T = The Devil, but they have made 4 separate attempts to buy Sprint to save them from obscurity but Sprint has been stubborn and refused. They are throwing stupid ass deals to try and save themselves, If you can reap the benefits go for it, but it wont last long. Nothing good ever does.
