Sprint to Battle Proposed AT&T / T-Mobile Merger
AT&T acquiring T-Mobile would be a huge mistake.
Verizon already said they don't care what happens to T-Mobile.

Yeah I know someone who just switched from ATT to Tmob and they taking their brand new 4G phone back because they are within their 30 day return period.
I too see Sprint becoming the default choice for people who want data and are tired of high prices.

well your friend can chill out, nothing will change with AT&T or T-mobile for at least a year. but it's probably better he isn't tied to any sort of contract in case this actually goes through.
