Default iPhone 5 coming to Sprint mid-October

The Wall Street Journal is reporting Sprint will start carrying the iPhone 5 and previous models in mid-October.

I've been waiting a long time for this. My wife has the Android platform and it is nice as well, but I have the iPod Touch and love it. My BB 8330 will be 3 years old by then and certainly ready to upgrade.

What, like Android phones don't already do that?

Show me an article suggesting Sprint is doing away with unlimited data because of the iphone and maybe we'll believe it. Until then it's just "sky is falling" stuff.

I'm sure it will be a big win for Sprint...maybe i'll even check one out when it hits, but I'd guess the total sales volume will be a mere fraction of what AT&T and VZW end up moving, at least at first.

Good for business. I will most likely pass on it, but I am happy Sprint may be getting it.

I am not happy that unlimited plans may go the way of the Dodo...

Not really! Actually Sprint could wind up hurting Verizon and AT&T

I think you missed the point...

iPhone = a lot more customers (even if Sprint doesn't gain a lot of new customers due to the iphone like what happened to VZ, existing users will upgrade to it in large numbers). # of high data use phones = guaranteed to kill off unlimited data plans, just a question of when. Iphone will accelerate that.
