1. The cellular phone company with the least amount of towers. If you aren't right on top of a big metropolitan area, there is no service. If you live in the suburbs, forget about getting a Sprint phone.
2. (ham radio) Switching to QRP (reduced transmitter power) when you've already got a RST of 103 or less (barely readable weak mediocre fidelity signal). Only a good thing when you're doing QRSS CW (slow speed morse code).

1. I enjoy going onto the roof of a 50 story building during a snowstorm to get service, therefore I chose Sprint.
2. The amateur radio shack got warm from the transmitter in 90 degree weather when he was working Timbuktu, so he decided to go Sprint even though the other guy had trouble copying him.

(n) The 3rd largest wireless carrier in the United States in terms of current customers. Sprint is consistently the leader in new technologies and integrating new functions into wireless phone service in the US. Sprint also has the lowest deposits which leads to many people with poor credit and bill management ability to get into trouble with their accounts. This can result in the entries above, which are most likely left by customers who cannot manage their accounts properly.

To deny continued service to a customer because of the amount of attention required by the customer. Based on Sprint Nextel dropping cell phone customers who have contacted customer service too many times. News on this action can be found at news.com.com/8301-10784_3-9739869-7.htm l
"I'm sick of that customer. Let's sprint her." "He was so high maintenance, we sprinted him." "It seems like companies keep sprinting me. What's up with that?"

1)A pathetic excuse for a cell phone company that mainly attracts people who can not pay their damn bills or are fresh from the border and have a "valid" green card. 95% of the people who do sign up never pay their bill, and if they do, they walk in to a RadioShack and say "i wunnuh pay my sprintz behul(bill)" Free and Clear America plans now include no roaming cause sprint has no coverage of there own. Hires terrorist for their customer call centers.
2) Sprint PCS aka Sprint Pathetic Customer Service

A pathetic, evil, piece of shit cell phone service, the worst in America. This company is extremely anti-competitive, and simply refuses to give up the monopolistic CDMA technology, even though every other company that made the mistake of choosing it is now giving it up.
Every carrier in the world, whether GSM, CDMA, IDEN or even AMPS, will be going LTE for the fourth generation, except Sprint, who chose the SIMless WiMAX technology, loosely based on CDMA, so they can remain anti-competitive.
