Just as I post a winded explanation on the previous article of AT&T's relentless directive to control the industry, this news of soliciting a cartel with DT, only proves case in point.

John,
Could this "join venture" be similar to Verizon Wireless where Verizon and Vodafone maintain a joint venture?

Or it could be a 'when in doubt deploy Plan C' option.
