OT: Anyone been able to access the new Cspire website today???

I was able to get the main page to come up once but couldn't get any link to work. Can't even get the main page now. Guess they're swamped with people wanting new apps.

I was able to get on it early this morning. The plans looked about the same other than free "streaming" option. They also had free picture texting on the unlimited plan. $70, The webite looked a littlle cheap to me. They did not have any new phones. Hello Verizon and the Iphone5 for me.

I'm still having trouble accessing their site. What I was able to see or didn't see left me disappointed. No Iphone and No talk of network or infrastructure improvements...ie, no 4G? Verizon is starting to get my attention and I've been with Cellular South since the first started offering service in Starkville back in the 90's.

I'm going to a round-table career-fair type event tonight where a Cellular South/Cspire Representative will be there. I'm pretty interested to hear his pitch to the group, since I'm sure a lot of it will consist of the who, what, and why's of the re-branding. Any one got any particular questions to ask?

Oh and neither web sites are working. Good start for the change over...

Other than a new name and some fancy way of getting apps that does not seem to work, what else has really changed? Any new phones that people actually WANT? IPHONE!! What about upgrades to 4G? More towers to cover the dead spots?

Point out that a brand new website being down for maintenance on its opening day is not the best thing to promote positive change!!

It looks like strictly a rebranding with a few gadgets for the android users. I can't believe that they didn't have any new phones to offer. They have great pricing and the phone coverage is good for me. My problem is that the data is only good enough for emails on my blackberry. You can forget being able to pull up a website. Looks like I am going to just bite the bullet and pay a little more to get the Iphone. </p>
