 | reply to Just_the_Facts Only because Cingular purchased AT&T wireless did their subscribers jump up. They only had a little more than half of the subscribers before the purchase. That was the main reason to purchase them, they were so intent on becoming #1. (I worked for Cingular for 3 years in Fayetteville NC) But look at the numbers after the purchase, Verizon has almost caught up. Look at statistics and information based on the two companies, within the next year, year and one half they will probably catch AT&T. Then they can drop the largest carrier ads. Yes every carrier has issues and nothing is 100% with wireless communications, but from experience AT&T has it all wrong. Only thing they have going for them is the IPhone. But it is like putting a bandaid on a gunshot wound. |
