Why is it I fear logic won't prevail

Putting aside the common sense that needed to be smacked into Sprint regarding Customer Service, they are presenting a clearly formed opinion that any objective person in the industry would concur with.

AT&T's strength largely has been in the marketing department, rather that the network. Everytime I see a new ad on tv the BS astounds me. Now they are calling themselves "THE NETWORK", hmm where did I hear that before...

Its almost like they will do anything to deflect from their problems (Hire more lobbyists, more ad buys, buy up a smaller competitor) rather than invest a cent in their own network equipment. Comparing AT&T to VZW they are actually a much larger company, yet the way dollars move about take a much different path.

You're right, it won't.

Why do people make jokes like "Hey isnt government intelligence an oxymoron?" It's becuase it is. When something makes sence and appears to be clearcut, it never is in the minds of politicians. We all knew that at&t had loads of spectrum that it could use, but now these findings pretty much prove it. At&t should just hand over that $6,000,000,000 to T-Mobile, take a bow, and go away.

Maybe that's been T-Mobile's plan this entire time 😎

Not the most intelligent thread but I will play. Do you honestly think AT&T would put that type of money up unless they knew that this would go through?? I would love to see anybody short AT&T's stock with the thought that this merger is not going to go through.

I agree. And how could at&t possibly be that confident? What could possibly convince at&t that gobbling up some 40% of the market share would be allowed so much so that they would bet billions on it? The potential answers disturb me greatly.

AT&T hasn't invested a cent in the network?

I remember an article here that said something about what? $18-19 billion into the network by the end of 2011? That's an awful lot of non-existant cents.
