Good afternoon REDACTED,
I am sure that you have heard the buzz in the market about Sprint getting the iphone, well thank goodness the rumors are true! We will be releasing the iphone 5 and iphone 4 in mid-October. I have attached pictures below of the new devices. The new iphone will be dual mode 3G/4G and also GSM (global). How many iphones do you currently have? I will be able to offer port credits and other incentives on new lines added to Sprint. How many would be new lines verse Sprint upgrades? I will send over a spreadsheet soon with all of your numbers that are upgrade eligible. I am not sure about the ipad yet. I would ?assume? that is a good possibility but haven?t heard rumors about this. Have a great evening!
I just love how folks automatically assume that people are lying. This particular rep works out of headquarters here in Virginia. I personally get invited to the headquarters testing facility in Reston 2-3 times annually and have put my hands on many devices long before they have been released. I was able to play around with the Evo months prior to the release and prior to the announcement. I was also able to see the Nexus, EVO 3d, blackberry playbook and the blackberry torch long before they were released. In fact, we have been customers so long that we actually sent all new devices on release day for us to distribute to our staff to play around with. They have not had a preview invitation in the past 3 months and I assume that is because of the iPhone but I cannot say for sure.
I redacted my name and hers so that noone would get into trouble. Each time that I go, I have to sign a NDA.
Sprint is having a very big announcement on October 7th. I think we might learn a lot more about the Sprint iPhone at this announcement as well. It is primarily focused on Network Vision but I think the timing also coincides with some iPhone related news as well. Not too much longer to wait.
Once the multi-mode base stations are fully deployed, this could be a real game changer. Sprint has a ton of spectrum and once all the phones on Sprint are capable of utilizing 800MHz, 1.9GHz, and 2.5Ghz this will allow Sprint to save billions and increase coverage and data. If Sprint can pull off the network vision update according to plan, they will be very competitive with Verizon and far surpass AT&T in coverage. Sprint will finally be able to fully utilize all their spectrum and the huge amount of cell phone towers they operate under one banner instead of two like they have been doing with Nextel.
Multi-mode base stations also easily allow Sprint to cheaply and easily add LTE into the mix as well keeping WiMax as a backhaul for data. WiMax and LTE can easily coexist very well together. They are not an either/or proposition like many people seem to think.
It's well-written, but hardly believable. Particularly the part about it having WiMAX.
If you take a screenshot that shows the outgoing IP address alongside this text, then we can talk.
Heck, people demand outgoing IP address when users claim to have received mail from Steve Jobs. We're a paranoid community? with good reason.
If I knew how to give that to you I would. A little instruction might help. I'm no technophile just a businessman with a good connection or two.
Personally I think she is wrong with respect to the WiMAX as well but I think she is correct with respect to it being dual mode, GSM/CDMA. I also think she is correct that there was 2 separate iPhone models that will be available, a revamped 4 dual mode and a 5 dual mode.
Today's rumor of a iPad based on sprint with possible WiMAX does make for an interesting turn.

Oh, sure. Open up your e-mail client? Um, hopefully you can do this with Mail. If not, all clients have the ability to show this info, I just don't know how to do it on any but Mail. My instructions'll be based on Mail, but the terminology should be the same.
Open that e-mail. Somewhere there should be a clickable option to show more details about the message.
In Mail, it's just this:
And when you click it, you get this:
The red's what we care about. Server from which the message was sent and the IP address from which the message was sent (so we can see if it's Sprint's server). Obviously black out absolutely everything else for both her sake and yours.

I certainly hope so. We don't need more SKUs.

That's THIRTY IPAD MODELS, though. There's NO way.
I haven't heard any rumours that convince me that T-Mobile is on the table. Since it's just the addition of the AWS band I'd think they'd just fold that into the GSM-based model.
I also would be surprised if the Sprint and Verizon iPads are just flashed differently for sale, but retain the same SKUs since there is no HW change, save for WiMAX which I think is not going to happen.

Looking at mail in Lion and I see no such options. All I have is a hide option and an inbox option. All it shows is from subject date to but no other information. Sorry.

Well, you had a good run, then. We'll have to wait for Apple to tell us the truth.
