The iPhone is Sprint's last hope to win the battle for customers from wireless giants. Sprint CEO Dan Hess has told the company's board to purchase 30.5 million iPhones over the next four years. That adds up to $20 billion in the US. The biggest reason Sprint loses customers is because their lack of carrying iPhones. By getting this amount of iPhones and selling them for less then the competition, they might have the advantage here. They may be all in, but this could be their chance to bounce back.
