Word is spreading via discussion forums that corporate Sprint stores will be closed this Sunday August 17 for an all hands meeting. No word on whether this will be your typical retraining (Airave is scheduled to launch August 18 and rumors have placed the HTC Diamond as arriving soon too) or if a motivational pep talk like the one Alec Baldwin delivered in Glengarry Glen Ross is on tap. Whatever it is – here’s hoping that it lifts Sprint’s fortunes. Despite their many issues, they remain the only carrier that offers reasonably price plans that include all the features (text and picture messaging) most other carriers are nickle and diming us for.
