Sprint Spark: theoretical speeds are theoretical

A step in the right direction for Sprint coverage and data speeds When Sprint first launched its Spark LTE technology earlier this month , our curiosity was piqued. Utilizing 800MHz, 1.9GHz and 2.5GHz frequencies, supported devices would be capable of reaching speeds of up to 60 Mbps in any of the five rollout markets, including New York, LA, Chicago, Miami and Tampa. With the carrier’s god awful 3G speeds and bumpy initial LTE rollout, the promise of being the fastest network in five of the largest consumer markets in the country seemed too good to be true.

Sprint Galaxy S3 having a turn at the Android 4.3 update

It seems Samsung has ironed out any issues with the Galaxy S3 4.3 update, at least in the US Sprint has joined the fray and the Android 4.3 update for the Galaxy S3 is now pushing out hard and heavy on all  three of the four major US carriers.
