never beating the spectrum squatter allegations

Allegations only made by those with no understanding of what Charlie was attempting to accomplish. If he just wanted to sit on the spectrum, why bother to fund thousands of 5G locations?

Is Boost mobile any good? 15 dollars is a good deal. I have Verizon now and it works fine. I tried xfinity mobile but it had its problems. It would always try to connect to a WiFi networks when you were out and around town instead of a cellular network . I would sometimes have to turn off WiFi just to connect.

I think many of us thought thats a big jump. Then the years rolled by and things slowed down, as all the other companies were way a head. Playing catchup in the tech world is very hard!

Kinda like if a new a startup, tried their hand at autonomous driving today? Everyone is 10 years ahead now.

Like anywhere, location matters. I have 5 of my techs using it. 4 love it, one has occasional signal issues

That still doesn't present any evidence that Charlie was deliberately squatting on the spectrum just waiting for the price to increase though. Obviously the time came when he realized his grand plan was no longer feasible, and he went for the best price he could get for the spectrum.
