wowowowow!~!~!~!
i love it. every one who was raggin on sprint and jumping ship to t-mo should be real f-ing happy with this! im almost ecstatic. when just 2 weeks ago this same rumor was going on about sprint buying up t-mo, i was thinking "lol. theyre all coming back to the fold of sprint. i hope they enjoyed thier 2 years of freedom. now i think its hillarious that they will now be att customers. i wonder if they will be keeping the tmo name and pricing as a seperate company or if the will absorb them in to att.

WOW... who is gonna be their competition? We need multiple carriers to keep prices down and keep innovation alive. I hope sprint and vzw do something to keep competition up!

My prediction... Google buys sprint and verizon in February 2012 they offer unlimited everything including 5G data 300mb up and down for $29/mo makes everybody sign 5 year contracts and only sells Android phones. Nokia breaks partnership with Microsoft, Android becomes and stays #1 forever! 2 years later AT&T files BK. 1 year later Apple makes Android phones, then Steve Jobs takes off his turtleneck and wears a tank top. :mrgreen:
