Would it change your mind about how good she is if I told you she is Canadian?

But the bottom line is the integration of these two wireless networks is going to be a piece of cake.
What T-Mobile customers gets out of this is a path to LTE, which they didn't have before now.
I look for Verizon to take a shot at acquiring Sprint as a response to this move by AT&T. Both Verizon and Sprint use CDMA with EVDO for their existing 3G networks, although Verizon is going with LTE for its 4G network while Sprint has placed its bets (a losing one, in my opinion) on WiMax.
Will be interesting to see how it all shakes out, and whether the FCC and DOJ will allow AT&T (or Verizon) to acquire one of the other top 4 national wireless carriers.

It definitely seems like a great strategy for AT&T since it will be so easy to bridge networks like you guys stated. The extra coverage and customers are going to well for AT&T.
Interesting prediction about VZ acquiring Sprint. That might just happen. Sprint has been running on fumes (and their awesome "Anytime Any Mobile" plan feature) for some time now and to me, really ate crap when they hyped up the announcement of their idiotic Kyocera dual screen thing.
What the hell are they thinking? Anyway, I figured Sprint's days were numbered.
