Together no more?

Rumors are swirling around today over the future of Sprint & Nextel. Seeking Alpha is reporting that Sprint has hired Morgan Stanley for a possible spin-off of its Nextel brand. Sprint’s ongoing troubles has been creating positive and negative conversation material for the last few months now.

I never understood why the got together anyway, since both networks disapointed me as a customer:

Sprint | Their service can only be used with their proprietary cell phones – never liked the limitation, and after 1 year I canceled my servie and moved to Nextel

Nextel | I think people only stayed with it because of the two-way option – after just 6 months I switched to T-Mobile. Why? Well the customer service didn’t help my made-up mind, more the opposite.
