Alright, I've been tryin to call a few people I know with sprint phones in the area and all I get is no ringing and then disconnected... Anyone else have this problem? Sprint tower (satellite) down?? Any ideas anyone??

The network is down!

All that I could get out of the person at the sprint store is that a fiber optic cable was cut somewere. One said NYC, another said the Milwaukee-Chicago line.

Mine is out too. :crying

My sprint is bye-bye in June. They are such a rip off and my phone doesn't even work in my building at work.

I use to have sprint and I loved it because no matter where I went if there was a freeway close by my phone worked... Some form of main highway I was fine... But with my tmobile phone some days it's just like "I don't like you..." lol...
