Check with your local dealer. They are your best source for local info. Even then, they will generally only know what has already happened.

1.) I don't know how recently you got this information, but I don't show any development in your area other than the existing towers.
2.) Not that I know of!
3.) True: They have announced the pre-merger planning structure, formed a program management office, and selected accenture as their consultants. That's the general information provided so far.
4.) Philadelphia is to be primarily affected by the elimation of the 1900 band. We have always provided 850 & 1900 in the NE market, but we have eliminated the 1900 band in primarily the PA market.

it because 850 has a higher range, and is able to penatrate buildings more effectivly.
