AGAIN the lamest of apologies. Your parents let you use that when you
were eight?

They all did it too !!


How many of the other companies that are losing money gave their CEO a
bonus of 30x his annual salary ???

Again, you are *so* predictable. Why does someone who complains about
not being quoted properly, purposely pick out a partial sentence out of
a much longer original post to quote, and completely ignore the rest of
the story? You pick out a small phrase or sentence and latch onto that
because it meets your needs, completely ignoring what ever else the
original poster said.

Here is the original, entire post by pcsguy that Phillipe ignored, only
using the opening statement and ignoring the explanation.

All the companies said that, and before you start with the "just because
they all did it, doesn't make it right", I don't see any complaints from
you about all the other carriers.
Now, he said that (like they all did) because it's their job to make the
company appear it's doing very well (like all corp big-wigs like him).
How good of a PR face would that have been if anyone has stood up and
said "Hey, we're going to lose most of our subscribers".
And acts like this are all over the place, how often do we hear GW Bush
say "The economy is getting better and better" which I still have YET to
see any improvement, I see the same jobs om Monster.com that I have been
for the past few years, comission only sales, work at home etc.. I don't
see it getting better.
Just after Sept 11th (I do apologize for bringing up a sore subject, if
it still is to anyone), top Wall Street analysts for CNN, MSNBC, FOX
etc. were all saying "We expect the markets to shoot up, we're going to
be buying like crazy" well, I don't need to remind us what happened to
the markets in the weeks that followed.
IN times of uncertainty, our leaders and figureheads try to put up an
act of optomism. Why? They don't want us to panic. If any of the
wireless CEOs or whatever said in mid-November 2003 that they expected
to lose a lot with WLNP, I guarantee you that would make them lose a LOT
more, the general public panic, and to prevent that, leaders put up an
act of optomism.

Again, my whole paragraph:

> complaints from you about all the other carriers.

I don't see you complaining about inaccurate coverage maps on all the
other carriers, I don't see you in the other newsgroups about them
losing money, I don't see you complaining that they all said they were
going to be WLNP winners.

So, you're also complaining that Sprint is only going after laptop
tethered abusers, and not enforcing it 100%, then why aren't you doing
the same with these issues? You say it's not right for them to do it,
but you're only enforcing that with Sprint and AT&T.
