Re: Mostly speculation

ding. Think aboot it. Vodaphone buys Verizon, then sells the landline plant to at&t, keeping VZW. That way they (at&t) won't raise as many eyebrows when they buy verizon as they won't be gobbling up both landlines and wireless...

besides VZW isn't GSM. No fear about it...it will happen.

AT&T will buy Verizon landline after 2 things happen...

1. Verizon one way or another isn't attatched to VZW.

2. Verizon sells off it's "unprofitable" markets/regions. (same deal goes for qwest. no way at&t buys qwest as is. watch for qwest to sell their unprofitables before being bought by at&t.)

Make a note of this, for it shall be true.

Re: Mostly speculation

how would that end competition? at&t wireless and VZW would not be combined. And at&t landline and VZ landline compete at the highest levels, (much like at&t/bellsouth pre-merger)

Besides with a move like that, the existing unions in the "provitable" areas would most likely stay but as they would be merged w/ at&t who has both CWA & IBEW currently.

It was just my gloom and doom sense of humor coming into play...
