Sprint PCS & AT&T Wireless Discuss WiFi Roaming
Now that Sprint PCS has come out with their WiFi plans, they're realizing that their customers would be much much happier with more hotspots to choose from, and are now talking to AT&T Wireless about creating some sort of roaming agreement to let users of each work off of each other's hotspots. In a market where everyone is struggling just to get people to sign up, it can only make sense to offer users a wider area of coverage by signing such roaming agreements. Of course, that still doesn't mean they won't have trouble getting people to sign up.
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.
