Or choose to escape the cooking completely and enjoy regional delicacies in the best local cafe bars and restaurants. Estepona Marina with the local shops, tapas bars and restaurants is within an easy five minute walk and the beautiful, traditional white walled Estepona old town is also on the doorstep.Our goal has been to provide a home from home for our guests, within one of the most beautiful, unspoilt and typically Spanish areas of the Costa del Sol. A truly wonderful apartment in a wonderful location!
Location description from owner
The Costa del Sol region
Estepona is not your typical English holiday resort on the Costa del Sol. As a lot of Spanish from the North of Spain holiday in Estepona it has retained a true Spanish feel and avoided some of the over commercialisation which has spoilt some areas on the Coast.Estepona itself has 2 EC Blue Flag beaches, a popular marina area with many tapas bars and restaurants and a lovely white walled town with a pedestrianised shopping area. All within a 5 minute walk.Due to its natural environment, surrounded by the sea and Sierra Bermeja mountains, Estepona enjoys a microclimate with over 325 days of sunshine per year and also lovely mild winters. A perfect escape for some winter sun.Some local attractions that you may wish to visit are:Gibraltar - Only 35 minutes drive from Estepona (and on the local bus route), Gibraltar is a sunny, VAT-free haven where you can find duty free bargains from electronic equipment & jewellery to leather & perfumes & haggling is encouraged! Make sure you don't miss the spectacular natural caverns of St. Michael's Caves or visit the Ape's Den, home to some of Gibraltar's famous Barbary Apes, the only free-to-roam primates in Europe. Watch out for monkey business as they can be mischievous and have been known to pick the occasional pocket looking for treats.Puerto Banus - Puerto Banus is about 20 minutes drive away. It has a large number of designer stores including Versace and Armani. Perfect for millionaire spotting and you may also see a famous face in the marina as a number of Hollywood stars have summer homes there.Laguna Village - A stunning high class shopping experience just 10 minutes drive away. Whether spending an extravagant day at the beach club, shopping in the designer stores or spending time in the luxurious bars and restaurants then Laguna Village (www.laguna-village.com) is the ideal place.Selwo Safari Park - Only 20 minutes drive away and on the public transport route, Selwo is ideal for the perfect family day out. The park is based on an African safari park and houses 2000 animals from giraffes to panthers in semi-wild conditions. Like Jurassic Park, large open sided lorries drive you through the various animal enclosures and up into the hills above Estepona. There are elephants, bears, hippos and so much more to see. In the summer, cover up as it can get very hot and there is not much shelter. Golf - There are over 20 courses within a 45 minute drive. The local Estepona Golf Club (www.esteponagolf.com) is reasonably priced between 20 - 60 euro's for a round and the Sunday Express regarded their greens as some of the best on the Costa Del Sol. Also Monte Mayor Golf and Country Club (www.montemayorgolf.laperlainternationalliving.com) with its exciting fairway winding through dramatic gullies, ravines and streams, offers a superb challenge to even the most experienced golfers.Also trips to beautiful Ronda, Tarifa and Casares are recommended if you have time. Or why not try Tangiers, North Africa which is only a 30-45 minute ferry crossing away.
Estepona Puerto/Marina
Marina Bay is ideally situated overlooking Cristo Beach (Playa del Cristo) and is an easy 5 minute walk from the heart of Estepona's thriving fishing port & marina. Cristo Beach is a delightful oyster-shaped cove of sheltered, gently shelving sand, ideal for children and for many years the beach has been awarded EC Blue Flag status for cleanliness and safety and in high season is manned daily with lifeguards. It also has well maintained toilet and shower facilities and a choice of 2 beach front restaurants (chiringuitos) with a true Spanish feel. Ideal for spending a full day on the beach!Estepona has many facets which makes it a popular holiday destination for those looking for a relaxing break to unwind, eat well, have a cool drink and chill out, people watching. Estepona Port and Town is typically Spanish and has retained all of it's charm even though it is a well established tourist destination. It has pleasantly managed to avoid a "night club" culture but does have a wide variety of restaurants & bars to chose from.Within a 5 minutes walk from the apartment you will find several supermarkets and shops and the local tapas bars and restaurants situated in Estepona Marina.

"Lovely large apartment overlooking sea and beach"
We stayed in this apartment for 12 days and couldn't fault it. Everything we needed was there and it was beautifully furnished. The bedrooms are large with loads of storage space. English tv and wifi available and the kitchen is well equipped. There is a large balcony to sit and watch the sun go down. There is an easy walk down to the beach. You can be there within a couple of minutes. It is 5 minutes walk to the port with plenty of bars and restaurants and about a 20 minute walk to the old town. Brilliant holiday and we hope to return again.
Hi Carole, Thank you for your lovely review. Please let me know if you want to return again in the future. Regards, Andy & Beata.
"A beautiful apartment close to all amenities."
I arrived on my own as I was visiting relatives in the area. Sue, who I found to be extremely helpful, met me close to the apartment and guided me to the underground car park. I think the apartment is a wonderful place to stay; the location is brilliant and the apartment itself is well stocked with everything you would need. A 'welcome pack' of basic groceries plus wine and beer were left in the fridge, a lovely touch. The apartment is located close to the Marina and Andy ( the owner) left a list of recommended local restaurants and places to visit which I found very reliable. As someone on my own I am pleased to say I found the apartment very secure. I would love to stay in this apartment again.
Hi Vonnie, Thanks for your kind comments I'm pleased that you enjoyed your stay with us and we look forward to welcoming you again in March '15.
"Excellantly equipped, spacious apartment and well located to all amenities"
We were picked up from the airport as arranged by the owner and car seats were provided for our young children as requested. The owner and his partner were there to meet us at the apartment and showed us around etc. The apartment was very spacious, clean and modern. Two bathrooms, large kitchen with everything you would need and open lounge and dinning area. Lovely balcony directly looking over the sea. Welcome pack with the essentials were provided on arrival, which was a great help as we arrived too late to go to supermarket. All towels and linen were provided which was nice quality. The apartment was excellently located, just a few steps down to Cristo Beach, which is lovely and 5 mins pleasant walk to the Marina with plenty of great restaurants to choose from. Lovely little parks for kids further along the beach just past the Marina. Estepona is very pretty with stunning views and mountains. Two supermarkets are just over 5mins walk of apartment. Overall it was the nicest place we've stayed for a long time and we would love to go back in the future.
Thanks for your superb comments. It's great to hear that you and the family enjoyed your stay with us. Estepona is a charming palce and not typical of the English style holiday resorts on the Costa del Sol and I'm please that you enjoyed your stay with us.
"Faultless Holiday - very hepful and accommodating owners"
Despite our flight being delayed by over 2 hours, Andy & Beata gave us a very warm welcome and could not have been more helpful. The apartment is a credit to them and the photos don't do it justice, it is spacious, well equipped and definately a home from home with every little detail being thought of. The location, views and amenities are great and the holiday passed by far too quickly. We cannot recommend this apartment enough, the age of our group ranged from 6 months to 60+ and everyone had an amazing time. A big thank you to Andy & Beata.
We are pleased that your later arrival didn't affect the start of your holiday too much. Thank you for your kind comments. We have been letting guests use our apartments for more than ten years and it is still great to hear that they have enjoyed their stay with us as we know how important holidays are and we have made a lot of effort in making their stay with us as pleasurable as possible. I will see what I can do to make the photo's a better reflection of the apartments true quality.
"All the comforts of home"
This is a spacious apartment near the marina. Compared to many Spanish apartments particularly holiday rentals it is large with two bathrooms and a sizeable living room and good sized kitchen and nice balcony with views across the beach towards Gibraltar. There is also easy underground parking at the property which was secure and well lit. There is everything one could need during ones stay and a welcome pack was included which was nice. The owner Andy is helpful and his emails and suggestions for things to do and visit are very informative and helpful, we were met by Sue on arrival at the apartment and again she was very pleasant and helpful and there is some comfort in knowing that there is someone nearby to contact if there was an issue, although in our case all went well. The apartment is 5minutes walk from the marina where there are a wide variety of restaurants and bars with a variety of cuisines to chose from. The centre of the old town is an easy 15-20 minute walk along the paseo which is a nice walk in itself. I would thoroughly recommend this apartment for its location, facilities and the fact it is a just a really nice place to stay.
Thank you for your comments. Even after letting our apartments to guests for the last 10 years it is still really pleasing to hear that they have enjoyed their stay with us.

Tip of the Day
To help a young child cope with separation from you while at school or on a visit to grandparents, tuck an imaginary kiss into her pocket to pull out when she's missing you, or give him something associated with you such as a special little rock, a broach or a photograph.

Product Description
About the Author
Alan C. Carey is an American historian and author specializing in military aviation topics. His interest in military aviation stems from his father's service in World War II, which inspired him to write his first book, The Reluctant Raiders: The Story of United States Navy Bombing Squadron VB/VPB-109 in World War II. Research on VB-109 led Mr. Carey to obtaining two Distinguished Flying Crosses and nine Air Medals from the U.S. Navy for his father's service in World War II, fifty years later. Mr. Carey graduated from Southwest Texas State University in San Marcos, Texas with a Master's Degree in Public Administration and a Bachelor of Arts Degree in History and Political Science. Twin Mustang: The North American F-82 is his first book with Pen & Sword.

This book is a pleasure to look at. It is a photographic history of the type. Text is minimal, but effective. Photos are from many sources, most have been previously published, but enough new images keep it interesting. My complaint is there are no color images except the small images on the paper covers of the volume. About 130 pages, including lists of aircraft and crew losses in Korean combat, lists of the fate of all built by serial number, and major characteristics for the aircraft. Worth the price of purchase for the student of aerial warfare, aviation history, and scale modelers. Amazon again provided my copy in record time and in pristine condition.
Note, if you ever want to see an F-82 flying in person, for now you are out of luck. The one flying example the CAF operated has found itself into the collection of the National Museum of the U.S. Air Force in a Dayton, Ohio. They also have a second Twin Mustang on display, the time/distance nonrefueled record holder, Hawaii to NYC in 1947. But the Twin Mustang had a bit part in a 1951 movie about polar explorations by the USAF. You can see about three minutes total screen time for the a/c in the film "Top of the World". ( No, not the Jimmy Cagney film....that was "White Heat"!)
With his usual lean prose style, Carey takes the reader from inception through the plane's final days as a victim of the new jet-powered fighters of the early 50's. While not a modeler, I was appreciative of his attention to detail for modelers as far as color schemes, as the interior photos are black and white. I was also appreciative of the very fine and extensive appendices in the back, covering everything from aircraft specs to losses of aircraft and personnel in the war. Perhaps the most exciting sections for me were the ones describing test-flying and air combat in the opening days of Korea.
I highly recommend this slam-dunk of a airplane book. It's a great read and a must-have for anyone interested in this unusual variant. ~Rob Morris, Author of Untold Valor: Forgotten Stories of American Bomber Crewmen over Europe in World War Two; The Wild Blue and Beyond: The 95th Bomb Group in War and Peace; and Untold Valor: The Second World War in the Pacific (out May 20, 2014)

There's nothing quite like the holiday season to bring couples back together.
The parties. The mistletoe. The questions from your Great Aunt Trudie about why you aren't married yet.
There's one particular couple that took the new year to rekindle their romance: Derek Jeter and Minka Kelly.
The Yankee and the Charlie's Angel actress broke up in August, but seem to have found themselves back in couply bliss right in time for the new year
[photogallerylink id=67814]
According to PEOPLE Magazine, Kelly and Jeter spent the new year in the most romantic of places, Paris. The two were spotted sightseeing and cuddling up to one another.
"They looked much in love," one witness told People. "They were always very, very close and very playful as a couple with each other."
Before their summertime breakup Minka and Derek had been together for three years. It was rumored that her Miami shooting schedule contributed to their split. Even before their Paris trip there were hints of a reconciliation; hints like Derek showing up in Miami just as rumors of Kelly dating her co-star surfaced.
Consider it a good thing that 'Charlie's Angels' was cancelled.

text: Home > World Mechanical failure blamed for Seoul train collision Agence France-Presse Posted at May 03 2014 05:31 PM | Updated as of May 04 2014 01:31 AM Share Facebook Twitter GPlus LinkedIn Pinterest SEOUL - A malfunctioning automatic stopping system caused the recent collision of two subway trains in Seoul, officials said Saturday. A moving train slammed into the rear of another, which had stopped at Sangwangsimni station in eastern Seoul on mid-afternoon Friday, leaving more than 200 people injured. One elderly woman was seriously hurt, while more than 150 required some sort of treatment - mainly for cuts and sprains. The accident was a fresh blow to a country still reeling from the April 16 Sewol ferry tragedy that left 300 dead or missing -- most of them high school students -- after the ship capsized and sank. "The Automatic Train Stop system (ATS) installed at Sangwangsimni station failed to function properly", Seoul Metro President Chang Jung-Woo told journalists. ATS is designed to control the distance between trains, and should activate when the two trains were within 200 meters of each other. The system malfunctioned, consequently, the following train came too close to the stationary train, leaving little time for the driver to brake. The tunnel curves before entering Sangwangsimni station and the driver did not see the platform was occupied until quite late, Chang added. The last two carriages of the stationary train appeared to have been thrown off the rails by the force of the impact, and TV footage showed cracked windows on the two trains and one door connecting two carriages that had been completely knocked off its hinges. Train service on the subway line No.2 returned to normal early Saturday. Seoul's subway network is one of the busiest in the world, carrying around 5.25 million passengers a day, according to official data from City Hall. The collision added to public anger and frustration with the country's lax safety standards exposed by the ferry disaster. The Chosun Ilbo daily with the country's largest circulation said Saturday that Seoul subway line No.2 was built 34 years ago and was run-down, and warned South Korea was not investing enough in maintaining its infrastructure. "This country, however, has been parsimonious in investing in safety measures while rushing for ostensible economic achievement", it said in an editorial. © 1994-2014 Agence France-Presse Share Facebook Share on Twitter GPlus LinkedIn Pinterest Read More: train korea collision seoul /classified-odd/07/28/16/hunt-on-for-life-saving-mythical-plant/overseas/07/28/16/indian-couple-hacked-to-death-over-22-cent-debt/business/07/28/16/samsung-extends-lead-over-apple-in-smartphone-market/video/news/07/28/16/duterte-may-babala-sa-mga-rebeldeng-npa/video/news/07/28/16/nupl-nababahala-sa-mga-pagpatay

Controlling Chaos: Kevin Osborn
by Amanda Quintenz-Fiedler
Kevin Osborn
Splash #39
April 01, 2010 — Sitting across the table in a muted Hawaiian shirt, close-trimmed beard and wire-rimmed glasses, Kevin Osborn looks like a quirky high school science teacher. The vibrant crystalline structures in his most recent series of photographs, "Crystal Melts," where Osborn used meticulous scientific methods to create stunning imagery, more than reinforces this impression, as does the way his eyes light up as he starts to discuss his love of the natural world, photography and education. With his unique and dedicated vision, Osborn has learned to harness the physical world and explore the unpredictable with precision.

Teen complains of treatment
Russian child adopted by American parents flees back home
Associated Press
MOSCOW — A teenager adopted by an American couple has returned to Russia, claiming that his adoptive family treated him badly and that he lived on the streets of Philadelphia and stole just to survive, Russian state media reported.
The allegations by Alexander Abnosov, who was adopted around five years ago and is now 18, will likely fuel outrage here over the fate of Russian children adopted by Americans. It's an anger that the Kremlin has carefully stoked in recent months to justify its controversial ban on U.S. adoptions.
Russia's Channel 1 and Rossiya television — which are both state controlled — reported Tuesday that Abnosov returned from a Philadelphia suburb to the Volga river city of Cheboksary, where his 72-year-old grandmother lives.
Russian media identified the teen as Alexander Abnosov, but also show him displaying a U.S. passport that gives his name as Joshua Alexander Salotti.
Abnosov, who spoke in a soft voice and appeared somewhat restrained, complained to Rossiya that his adoptive mother was "nagging at small things."
"She would make any small problem big," he said on Channel 1. He also told Channel 1 that he fled home because of the conflicts with his adoptive mother, staying on the streets for about three months and stealing.
"I was stealing stuff and sold them to get some food," he said with a shy smile.
According to the daily Komsomolskaya Pravda, Abnosov says that his parents visited him while he stayed in a shelter in Philadelphia, but that they didn't ask him to come home as he'd expected. Channel 1 said his adoptive father gave him $500 to buy a ticket to Russia, though it wasn't clear when he arrived here.
The newspaper said it reached Abnosov's adoptive mother, who denied driving him away. She was quoted as saying he was asked to come home, but said he wanted to return to Russia where he has relatives to care for.
The teen's adoptive parents — identified in the media reports as Steve and Jackie Salotti — could not immediately be reached Tuesday.
A woman who identified herself as a relative at the couple's home in Collegeville, Pennsylvania, said the parents weren't there and did not want to discuss the case.
The teen attended the Methacton School District in Pennsylvania from April 2004 through the fall of 2012, when he withdrew from Methacton High School, spokeswoman Angela Linch said Tuesday.
Abnosov's story was top news on Russian state television, which tried to cast it as an example of the alleged misfortunes that befall Russian children adopted by U.S. parents.
The Russian government in December banned all American adoptions of Russian children in retaliation for a new U.S. law targeting alleged Russian human-rights violators.
Some 60,000 children have been adopted by Americans in the past two decades, and many Russians disagree with the ban, seeing it as a politically driven move depriving children of a chance to have a family.
To help justify it, the ban has been accompanied by extensive state media coverage of what is described as numerous cases of parental cruelty to adopted Russian children in the United States. The Kremlin also has accused U.S. authorities of turning a blind eye to such cases.
Most recently, Russian officials pointed to the Jan. 21 death of 3-year-old Max Shatto, born Maxim Kuzmin, whose mother found him unresponsive outside their home in Gardendale, Texas.
Russian officials claimed the boy was the victim of "inhuman treatment," and expressed disbelief with an American grand jury decided earlier this month not to charge Max's adoptive parents in his death after a prosecutor concluded his fatal injuries were accidental.
Abnosov's grandmother told Rossiya that she was refused custody of her grandson after his alcoholic father died five years ago.
"I've been asking them to give me the boy," she said, referring to child welfare officials. "But I was very ill then, and they told me I was too old and ill to raise him."
Abnosov indicated he plans to stay in Russia, and state media reported that he is going through the legal process needed to establish at what level he would fit in the Russian education system.

DALLAS, Feb. 26, 2014 /PRNewswire/ --
Quality Stores Update – Federal Insurance Contribution Act
On January 14, 2014, the United States Supreme Court (the "Supreme Court") heard oral arguments in United States v. Quality Stores, Inc. The outcome of this case will clarify the taxable treatment of certain severance payments under the Federal Insurance Contribution Act (FICA).
Many employers have previously filed protective claims in order to extend open years for statute of limitation/potential refund purposes. The 2010 tax year will expire on April 15, 2014 for FICA refund purposes, and employers should review whether a protective claim should be filed for 2010 before that deadline.
It is expected that the Supreme Court will rule on this case during the summer of 2014. If the case is decided in the taxpayers favor, it is likely the Internal Revenue Service (IRS) will issue guidance at that time pertaining to the requisite refund process for allowable claims. Ryan will continue to monitor the case and will provide updates as available.
Defense of Marriage Act Update
On June 26, 2013, the United States Supreme Court issued its decision in United States v. Windsor and struck down the Defense of Marriage Act (DOMA). Although this decision resulted in the equalization of the tax treatment of same-sex couples for Federal purposes, individual states continue to clarify the state tax treatment of same-sex couples.
Employers should continue to monitor state updates and guidance regarding the tax treatment of certain same-sex marriage benefits as state pronouncements, legislation, and court decisions will continue to alter requirements for both employer and employee payroll and tax purposes. Ryan will continue to monitor this issue and will provide updates as available.

Apple: MacBook Air is Mac's answer to iPad
Apple has said that the MacBook Air is the company's answer to the iPad in its latest earning report call to stockholders on Wednesday.
"If the Mac company were a separate company, and the iPad company were a separate company, what would the Mac company build to compete with the iPad? And I think the answer is the MacBook Air," said Tim Cook, Apple's COO paraphrasing earlier comments by Steve Jobs (who wasn't on the call).
Cook believes that, because they aren't separate companies, though, they have been able to use successes in each division to create products that cross boundaries, borrowing tech from each other.
"Part of the magic of Apple is that there's not high walls between these product groups. They like each, talk to each other, they're of the same DNA, they want to build the best products in the world. And so if one has a great idea, there's not a 'not invented here' in the other group. And so one of the key learnings from the iPad was that people love instant on, they really love that. And so the MacBook Air incorporated that, and that's just one simple example."
Cook went on to detail how "there are tons of examples throughout all of our products, where something started on one and went to a different one...It could start on the phone, and then flow forward, it could start on the iPad and flow, and so on and so forth."
So what tech would you like to see from one Apple product on another? Let us know in the comments below...

St. Petersburg Event To Honor New Coast Guard Cutter And The Memory of William Flores.
The Coast Guard Foundation, a non-profit organization committed to the education, welfare and morale of all Coast Guard members and their families, announced today its 19th Annual Tribute to the United States Coast Guard's Seventh District will take place on Friday, November 2, 2012. At this year's event, the Foundation has partnered with the Commissioning Committee for the U.S. Coast Guard Cutter William Flores. Seaman Apprentice William Flores heroically and tragically lost his life saving the lives of his shipmates aboard the Coast Guard Cutter Blackthorne in 1980. The Coast Guard will hold a special ceremony on Saturday morning following the Tribute that will name the new cutter in Flores' honor and the crew that will work on it, as well as pay tribute to Flores' service.
Seaman Apprentice William Ray "Billy" Flores was honored posthumously with the Coast Guard Medal after he gave his life to save his shipmates in the frenzied moments after a collision between Coast Guard Cutter Blackthorne and the 605-foot oil tanker Capricorn on January 28, 1980. Less than a year out of boot camp, 19-year-old Flores remained aboard the sinking ship and used his belt to strap open a lifejacket locker, which allowed lifejackets to float to the surface for use by survivors. Although 27 shipmates escaped the submerged cutter, 22, including Flores, perished.
Attendees of the November 2nd Tribute will include former Secretary of the Department of Homeland Security and the event's keynote speaker Governor Tom Ridge, Commandant of the US Coast Guard Admiral Robert Papp, Coast Guard Atlantic Area Commander Vice Admiral Robert Parker, and Seventh Coast Guard District Commander Rear Admiral William Baumgartner. The Coast Guard Foundation will be represented by President Anne Brengle; Ed Ameen, local Tampa/St. Petersburg businessman, Coast Guard Foundation Director and Chairman of the St. Petersburg Dinner Committee; and the previous Coast Guard Foundation Chairman of the Board and St. Petersburg resident, Ross Roeder. Other distinguished guests include Dick Crippen, emcee and retired local sports announcer; Bill Foster, mayor of St. Petersburg; as well as members of Seaman Apprentice Flores' family.
"We are thrilled to salute the Coast Guard and honored to partner with the commissioning committee for the William Flores," said Anne B. Brengle, president, Coast Guard Foundation. "Seaman Apprentice Flores exemplifies the dedication and selfless commitment to duty of the men and women who serve in the U.S. Coast Guard. Our Seventh District dinner pays tribute to that spirit and raises awareness and funds that allow us to continue to support the heroic efforts of the guardians who enforce maritime law, protect our homeland and preserve the environment."
The USCG Cutter William Flores is the third of the new Sentinel-class cutter. At 154-feet long and a speed of over 28 knots, the new cutters replace the aging 110-foot cutter fleet that has performed yeoman work in coastal patrolling. Built at Bollinger Shipyard, the ships have a crew of two officers and 20 enlisted personnel. The William Flores will have a homeport in Miami, Florida and will conduct migrant interdiction operations and port, waterways and coastal security patrols, as well as search and rescue, fisheries and national defense missions.
For more than 40 years, the Coast Guard Foundation has been committed to inspiring leadership, learning and a proud legacy of service to our nation by supporting the men and women of the United States Coast Guard and their families. The Foundation provides higher education grants to enlisted personnel, reservists and their children, financial support for college to families of Coast Guard members lost in the line of duty, financial relief to Coast Guard families who have lost possessions in natural disasters, and support for morale programs, including funding recreation, exercise and family-oriented facilities.
The 19th Annual Tribute to the United States Coast Guard's Seventh District will be held on Friday, November 2, 2012 at The Vinoy Renaissance St. Petersburg Resort & Golf Club, 501 5th Avenue NE, St. Petersburg, Florida. The dinner and program will begin at 6:30 pm. For more information on the Coast Guard Foundation's gala tribute to the United States Coast Guard, the Coast Guard Foundation or to help support its work, please visit the Coast Guard Foundation website www.coastguardfoundation.org.

"LG Viper pairs perfectly with our unlimited data plans to bring customers the benefit of new technology, including our upcoming 4G LTE capabilities at a great price", said David Owens, vice president of Product Development at Sprint.
