Sprint I don't think has switched to GSM yet they are still in CDMA last time I checked.

Maybe where that person lives, he's not able to get a Verizon 4G signal. That would be most likely. The problem the US has is multiple formats. All cell phone companies should scrap the old crap and go to current standards like the EU. It would make life so much easier.

TV is another example of stupidity. All TVs sold now handle at least 1080i. That's the format you get from your cable system for hi-def. All channels should be hi-def and if the customer still has a low-def TV, then all they need to get is a box that goes between the cable box and the TV to convert the hi-def signal to a low-def signal. Problem solved. Also, it would free up bandwidth so someday cable TV could move to 4K UHD. The cable box could handle dropping the 4K UHD signal to 1080i for older hi-res TVs.
