Good point Eric. IIRC, SPCS did promote it, especially in print but
certainly not as much as they have promoted the 7:00 PM N & W promo on TV.

 I agree , Sprint should take advantage of this, it's a great deal.
We get by on a 500 min. w 3 phones due to pcs to pcs, and usually have
min. left over.
I do wish they would go back to letting you buy roaming bundles though,
sometimes the 100 I have don't go far enough.

I wonder how many of my friends have SprintPCS as a service?
Sprint does have the option but really, how many users actually use or need
it?
I know I could of used some minutes if I had the option but, as much calling
as I do, most of my minutes are to other providers anyway.

Even on my Verizon phone, I hardly use any minutes that couldn't have come
out of my regular minutes and not hurt me.
Last month, out of 1000+ minutes I used on my Verizon account, 80 of them
were MtoM.
With free N&W, MtoM becomes less of an issue is my point, I think.   ;-)

You also have to consider the network impact when making these kind of
promotions.
They have a fairly predictable calling pattern now.
Would adding the option, which is now 5 bucks I think, to everybody's
account for free change the network calling pattern?
It comes down to capacity really. The 'governor' has been make calls and get
off, during peak hours and you can keep your voice trucks clearer.
People who pay the 5 bucks or so for MtoM on Sprint I would guess are
business customers who call in their local area anyway.
It a wild guess but, bottom line is, there are a lot on angles to think
about before they offer these kind of deals.

Does that logic make sense?  ;-)

Bahahaha verizon's "in-network" as they put it is just a marketing ploy.
They have had it for awhile now, I setup some family phones for this
purpose a few months ago. All this in-network nonsense is their way of
promoting a different spin as a new idea without actually having a new
product. I find it amusing that alot of the people I speak with think this
is a new concept only because mobile2mobile wasn't really promoted like
this. At first when I saw the in-network ads I thought they were doing
something new and including all verizon customers (including landlines)
but that was not the case. Who ever in their marketing that came up with
this promo did a good job since now it seems like verizon practically
invented the concept with the amount of ads they are throwing around
without there being such a focus on the feature from their competitors.
