Re: GSM Network Alltel has CDMA.
I was thinking that Sprint\Alltel would happen, but the VZW\Alltel deal also seems logical. Though I'd really hate for that to happen.
The reason being that Alltel right now is pretty much transparent roaming for Sprint. If Verizon buys Alltel, they jack up roaming rates for Sprint and the carrier has a much harder time making a go of it. They go under and we're left with three cell phone companies that are major in the U.S. with one (T-Mobile) being much smaller than the others. Not a good thing.
Thoguh with Qwest switching over, I'll bet this will happen anyway. Tey just need to go quickly lest the Dems stop it. |
