Yes but then SprintPCS the spokeslady LIED
and spun it as no big deal, but we're familar with SprintPCS
employees saying that.

So it is, my apologies. It was the only SPCS article I could find on that TV

The link worked for me fine. It didn't indicate that there was a 24

Saturday morning. I am glad things are working again. I am interested

dishonesty. Uh huh.
