Rural Operators Want FCC to Cap Spectrum Holdings
It won't be possible for there to be a monopoly. The biggest problem now is too many small carriers with inferior networks.

it's sad...
but at&t will just sit on the spectrum they have and not expand their network. they may add 3G(slowly) but actually adding towers to areas they have spectrum in that they don't have coverage will not be a priority. they don't want the best coverage in their home country, they want the best 'global' coverage.
Actually at&t spends more expanding its network each year than any other carrier. Not sure where you are but it costs over $250k to build a site, and so it needs make financial sense....
