Sprint is reporting that today was it's best sales day ever.

"Sprint today reported its best ever day of sales in retail, web and telesales for a device family in Sprint history ..." Fared Adib, Sprint product chief, said in a statement UPDATE 1-Sprint says iPhone sales beat expectations | Reuters

Not surprising at all. Sprint customers have been waiting for what seems like an eternity for the iPhone to show up on their network. Good to hear that Sprint is finally getting some good news.

Yeah this is good news for Sprint. Hopefully they keep their unlimited data plans around for a long while. That with the iPhone will give them a competitive advantage. If the AT&T/T-Mobile merger doesn't go through, I 'd say Sprint has a good shot at turning things around & gaining some ground on VZW & AT&T.

Sprint with its unlimited data plan was already bogging down where I live, feel even better about making the decision to leave Sprint.

i'm in L.A. The networks works fine for me on my pre to day the few times i used he net on my phone. I haven't noticed any difference. Although honestly my bar is pretty low since its never been good.

"We reached this milestone at approximately noon CT/1pm ET." Fared Adib, Sprint Product Chief
Sprint Newsroom | Sprint Statement on Launch Day Sales of iPhone 4S and iPhone 4

just read that. That's pretty amazing. Means they broke their record before noon on the west coast. Which is pretty crazy. And I was at best buy at 7:30 PM today and there was a line about 20 people long waiting to get an iphone. Crazy demand.

unfortunately i sold most of em after the banksters stole my house to pay for motel month. o DID save about 10 just in case so i hope to earn a couple dollars.....which is ALWAYS better than zero

i have only slightly more patience for ios (n im a mactard since 1989 or so) than i do for android (actually, i have NO patience for my android tablet/ereader and am going to box it up and sell it.) so i'm sticking to my WEB OS addiction till my pre and i are found blue in a bathroom stall.

i hope you have more S stock than i my darling............

I just hope that this new found success doesn't encourage more AT&T/Verizon like behavior from Sprint.... But I'm sure you stock holders wish the opposite :-)

yeah that's wishful thinking. Sprint has been loosing a crap load of money until the EVO came along. They will gradually get closer to Verizon and AT&T. They have to to make money. I'm sure they'll stay unlimited for a little while but pretty much everyone is going tiered. And after the big rush from iphone users comes they'll get closer to verizon in price and services etc.
That said maybe they'll keep offering value as they build out LTE. i doubt it but if one company offers LTE and you can't you may need some incentive for customers. Not that i think 4G is a big draw. Its not for me at the moment.
