Uh...let me get my dictionary out and I'll get back to you. It is always good to have you around. Were you vacationing on Howards Forums by chance?


More accurately, the other way around. I was very active at HowardForums until two or three years ago. But the ill informed, juvenile arguments and mindless carrier cheerleading tend to raise my ire a bit too much. So, I try to temper my forum participation in general.

To provide a simple analogy to my previous post, the spectrum that AT&T is buying from Qualcomm is akin to a one lane road. AT&T already owns a two lane highway, so AT&T can add that extra lane to one side of its highway for greater capacity. T-Mobile does not own a two lane highway (at least not in the Lower 700 MHz band), so the one lane road would not help T-Mobile.
