After losing 801,000 post-paid subscribers, which is slightly better than the 870,000 that analysts expected, Sprint might need to really change its game to do more than just stay afloat. Consequently, Sprint&#8217;s losses for the quarter are a whopping $478 million compared to $326 million YoY. Revenue dropped about nine percent to $8.04 billion. Interestingly enough, Sprint&#8217;s prepaid service, Boost, added over 600,000 subscribers thanks to Boost&#8217;s $50 unlimited plan. But with its Simply Everything packages including <em>Any Mobile, Any Time<\/em>, and hardware like the Palm Pre and HTC Hero, Sprint could be looking to shrink its quarterly losses in the future and maybe even see some positive gain.<\/p>\n<p><span id=\"more-37662\"><\/span><a href=\"http:\/\/www.pcmag.com\/article2\/0,2817,2354936,00.asp?kc=PCRSS03069TX1K0001121\">Read<\/a><\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" src=\"http:\/\/feeds.feedburner.com\/~r\/TheBoyGeniusReport\/~4\/Fq2pf7VWzEQ\" height=\"1\" width=\"1\"\/><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Sprint seems to keep bleeding, keep, keep, bleeding subscribers.
