All of what you posted may be true (most likely it probably is)
Having said that I do NOT want ATT to buy TMobile. ATT is horrible and already behaves like a monopoly.
If they buy T-Mobile (a company that has very decent service), the US will become the ONLY nation in the world (bar North Korea, Cuba etc) to have an effective monopoly in the GSM market
ONLY Nation!! Can you imagine?
Verizon and Sprint are both CDMA
Yes..yes.. 4G is coming.. but so is a balanced budget... I will see it when I believe it.. that what I am seeing is what I am believing...
Companies that large do not need to merge; the only possible outcome is not having to compete with each other and inevitable higher prices and lower quality.
If a $29 BILLION company can’t make it on it’s own then let the markets take their course.
Trust me, I know.
I am a former Cellular One (then Cingular) (then AT&T) refugee who is on T-Mobile.
But, regardless of my personal preferences...I don't like the government sticking their nose where it doesn't belong.
Particularly THIS administration.
