text: Wireless Local Number Portability (WLNP) permits a subscriber to change wireless service providers in the same 
  market area while retaining their existing telephone number. This Federal Communications Commission mandate was 
  effective November 24, 2003 in the 100 largest metropolitan areas and will be effective in all areas of the United States 
  on May 24, 2004. Although the initial impact of WLNP appears to be insignificant, there may be a significant future 
  impact to the Company’s operation. As a result of WLNP, portions of the PCS subscriber base may migrate to other 
  wireless providers, thereby contributing to increased churn. Alternatively, the implementation of WLNP may allow the 
  Company to attract additional subscribers from other wireless providers. 
  
  The Company has limited control over the service plans and marketing promotions offered to Sprint customers in the 
  competitive wireless telecommunications industry. Sprint controls the marketing plans, advertising message and 
  market promotions offered in the Company’s market area. As a result, the plans and promotions offered may have a 
  material adverse effect on the Company’s results of operations. 
  
  The Company relies on Sprint for the development of new products and services to remain competitive in the wireless 
  industry. Examples of these services are text messaging, video, and push to talk walkie-talkie features. If these 
  services do not work properly or if Sprint should not continue to develop new competitive products, the results could 
  have a material adverse impact on the results of the Company.
