Re: Killer Instinct

True that the company is technically worth billions, however
their stock price is in the toilet, making them a target for a takeover, being at less than $9/share

Yeah, a takeover or merger is possible, but it's not like they'll go away. They're just too big.

It's also not likely that a US telcom company will merge with them. Maybe a foreign one, especially given exchange rates. But if that happens the Sprint US operations will still essentially be intact.

If anything, I'd expect a foreign deal like Vodafone/Verizon Wireless, possibly with a Korean or Japanese CDMA player

I'm sure if Sprint was a GSM carrier Vodafone would have tried to snap them up by now- it's no secret they're unhappy with their current deal with Verizon as to Verizon Wireless.

British Telecom and SK Telecom in Korea have been mentioned as possible suitors in the recent past.
