Currently, Sprint's Time to vacate much of their iDEN network in certain cities where Nextel interferes with emergency services is this June or July (can never remember). If they do not comply (and the Appeals Court doesnt provide an injunction against the Government Shutting down iDEN in those areas) the iDEN network will be shut down in those areas. Of course, Sprint has had over 3 years now to move those customers, so who knows if the injunction would be granted. Also, in the last press release, Sprint only commited to iDEN until 2012. (though if it gets shut down i do not think they will have issues getting the customers to move away from that network)
Try reading the press release. I think the words Dan Hesse used were actually "Patently False" and alluded to the fact that anyone making claims that the iDEN Network is going away works for one of Sprint's competitors.

So, kill the noise and talk about something you are more knowledgeable about.
