Cingular and SprintPCS Most Competive US Carriers
A new report from Technology Business Research ranks Cingular and SprintPCS as the top two most competive carriers in the US based on growth and profitabilty. Sprint makese some sense in the number two spot, but Cingular's number one ranking is confusing. Verizon seems to have better subscriber growth and a less complex network migration path than Cingular and it only ranked fourth in TBR's matrix. But maybe due to Cingular's slightly higher ARPU they have better margins than Verizon.
Thank you for reading this Techdirt post. With so many things competing for everyone’s attention these days, we really appreciate you giving us your time. We work hard every day to put quality content out there for our community.
Techdirt is one of the few remaining truly independent media outlets. We do not have a giant corporation behind us, and we rely heavily on our community to support us, in an age when advertisers are increasingly uninterested in sponsoring small, independent sites — especially a site like ours that is unwilling to pull punches in its reporting and analysis.
While other websites have resorted to paywalls, registration requirements, and increasingly annoying/intrusive advertising, we have always kept Techdirt open and available to anyone. But in order to continue doing so, we need your support. We offer a variety of ways for our readers to support us, from direct donations to special subscriptions and cool merchandise — and every little bit helps. Thank you.
–The Techdirt Team
