Sorry, condradicts everything I've heard so far, and I'm willing to bet that you have no facts to back it up either. Nice try.

Even if they announce it, it could take years for the FCC to approve it. They're still fuming at themselves for letting one of the "Baby Bells" to arrange themselves into a bigger corp than the original "Ma Bell".

Well, but SBC put them to shame, the number of households that don't have an ATT product/service is easier to count than those that do.

No, but they need Alltel's numbers to be #1 in #s of customers. That's the biggest benefit to Verizon. The ability to overshoot Cingy in #'s of customers without having to actually sell to new people.

This is not happening....

The most likely suitor (wireless industry) is Sprint, after that, Comcast. This is assuming that Alltel does merge/sell, and it isn't to/with an investment company.

Agreed. Unless some hard evidence can be produced, I declare this Schananigans!

Besides, if Verizon bought out Alltel it's be catastrophic news for ALL cell users. If Verizon had the combined numbers of Alltel and Verizon they could charge whatever they want for prices...
