Karma Go

Do you work for sprint or are you hoping they will find your posts & hire you as a spokesman?

 

Do you always post stupid comments?

 

No worse than anything you post. Everytime someone mentions a cell phone company you just have to jump in with how much better Sprint is. Everybody gets it,you love them,great for you.

 

i do the same jumping everyone else does. so don't be hating.

 

PFJ just upped monthly wifi to 40 bucks Looks like this gets my vote but does it take weeks to get the unit? Time to order...

 

^^^I ordered mine on Sunday through Amazon and it should be there on Friday when I get home. I'll post a review here once I've had a chance to give it a ride around the block.

Here's a couple of discussions about it in other forums I found when doing my research.

Very cool. Thanks for the links!

 

Well shoot. That didn't last long.

Karma just sent out a letter to Neverstop customers about overloading their services. They are now experimenting with overall speeds and possible throttle policies for their unlimited subscribers. Here's the email they sent:
__________
We launched Neverstop two months ago and the usage has blown our minds.

We couldn’t be more excited about your appetite to be online while on the go. But we were surprised to learn how many of you are also using it heavily at home. We've seen lots of you binge watch Netflix in HD all day, back up your hard drives over the internet, and even connect your Xboxes through ingenious means. It’s a glimpse of how the internet should be, and we love it… but it's putting a strain on the service and it’s not what the product is meant for today.

So, to make sure that Neverstop continues to work seamlessly for as many people as possible, we have to make some changes to the service. We began running tests to optimize the service, including lowering speeds. Our engineers are working hard to find the right balance of always accessible worry-free internet, at a fair price, so you'll likely see speeds change over the next few days while we try to fine-tune that balance.

We will continue to get you online so you can do what’s most important to you when on-the-go: things like email, streaming, and browsing. But, we need to reduce the extreme usage cases. If you find that Neverstop doesn’t fit your needs, use our mobile apps to switch to Refuel (link removed), or head here (link removed) for a refund.

As we figure this out, we want to take into account what is most important to you as a Neverstop customer. To get your input, we put together a survey so you can help us improve Neverstop.

Ultimately our goal is that you never have to worry about getting online whether you’re at the office, home or the spaces in between. That’s Neverstop’s future. Today, we will make Neverstop the right solution for your on-the-go needs.

Thanks,
Steven van Wel

 

Ahh crap I haven't even got mine yet. Oh well I guess it's human nature to abuse unlimited services. Personally I just wanted it for streaming Netflix in standard mode and listening to podcasts while on the road, hopefully that will still be possible after the engineers get done with the upgrade.

 

I don't know the difference on my tv. But my laptop has no difference between Sd and Hd. So i leave it on SD.
