T-Mobile USA Considering Asset Sale
Selling off its towers would not be a bad move.
Sprint did it and it seems to be working fine for them. T-Mobile is so cash-strapped, and with DT constantly debating a spin-off or sell-off, T-Mobile could sell its towers and pay a 3rd party to maintain them, and focus its energy on improving its data speeds and securing more smartphone options.
T-Mobile is the 3rd largest carrier in the U.S. not the 4th.

a carrier selling their towers is jsut a quick fix so they can raise capitol quickly. its not really a long term solution. the long-term expense of renting back your own network cannot be a good cost long term.
Maybe if they spent more time investing in 3G coverage
T-Mobile would blow the competition out of the water if they would just start expanding their 3G coverage faster. I don't see the roll outs anymore. They seem to be ignoring the smaller markets that is why I have ported my line over to Sprint. It's a tough move considering I've been a customer with T-Mobile for nearly seven years. The reality is that Sprint has much better 3G coverage.
