This is a bad thing, and might not make it through based on anticompetitive grounds. I was hoping Vodaphone would win, creating two international cell phone companies with U.S. presences (T-Mobile being the other. That would open up the possibility of lowering the cost of international cell phone roaming. Of course, I also think Cingular should look to acquire a european provider, such as Orange, for the same reason.
