Author ala carte sprint tv pricing?
Mark Swope

Will someone please tell me what individual channels costs on Sprint TV - if
I were to buy a Power Vision phone and want to simply add channels vs.
buying a bundle?

What's the break even point for the bundles (for instance, I'm not big into
sports, so buying the Plus Pack might not satisfy me - the Ultimate pack has
a better set of channels for me).

Thanks,
Mark

Unfortunately, there is no bundle pricing for channels.

With Power Vision Ultimate you get a couple radio channels and some tv clip
channels (short news, weather, and entertainment clips).

All tv channels cost per channel. And the channels (that I've previewed) are
$4.99/month.

When I signed up for the Power Vision ultimate I thought I'd be getting all
channels. I called *2 and they explained that the only channels you get is
the sprint channels.

I wasn't that disappointed, because I use a lot of thier other services and
I'm very pleased. But if you're shopping for a phone to use as a television,
setting up a fully featured phone could get pretty expensive.

Otherwise, it is pretty impressive.

With the Ultimate Pack you get Channel 50, which includes Fox News, the
Weather Channel, NFL Network, and a few other streams.

I was totally underwhelmed with Sprint TV, and switched a couple of
days ago from the Ultimate Pack to the Access Pack.
