I dont know, right now nextel phones(just the phones) could kiss my ass.. I HATE their phones. Customer service has been great, reception great and no 2 way issues. I had sprint and was anxious about the merger since I liked Sprint when I had them and the phones were extremely durable. I think I am the only one who is having real issues with my phone, nobody in my family has issues with their nextel and nobody I know has issues with their nextel(and I just about crapped when I figured out how many people I know with nextel) so I think its just me
Im excited about the merger though, damn near everyone I know has sprint or nextel.
