AT&T Buys T-Mobile
Posted by Jeff Campbell in "Apple Talk" @ 03:00 AM
"Wow.
And then there were 3 big US mobile players. The move would make AT&T-Mobile, the joint venture, a monopoly for GSM/EDGE/HSPA+ phones in the US. It would also create the largest US carrier with 130 million subscribers blowing away Verizon's 90+ Million."
Interesting news to say the least. This was released over the weekend, and the proposal is valued at $39 billion. Any bets on if it will be accepted or will the Justice Department and the FCC deem it too much and deny it? One plus of course is that current T-Mobile customers would be able to get the iPhone. What are your thoughts?
