I believe that Metro PCS is going to emerge as a top three wireless phone service provider in the next 2-4 years. Metro PCS appears to be a run of the mill bargin cell phone provider, but they offer plans that stomp out others dollar for dollar. As technology increases so will Metro PCS's phone platforms and networks. In 10 years Metro PCS has grown from a Metropolian area only service provider to now covering 90% of the United States.
I doubt MPCS will become a top three provider. That would require them to have over 50 million subscribers which I can't really see happening with a completely prepaid company. I've been in the wireless industry for a long time and I can't tell you the amount of complaints that I've received from people about MPCS' service (both reception and customer service). With a huge base of their stores being authorized private dealers, it is very hard for them to properly service their customers on a retail level which is very important for a tech product.
