Here, this may help:





Is Echostar in financial trouble? Can't say I've paid much attention to them.

I want Echostar/dish network to stay just the way it is. The only thing I wish is that Qwest had a deal with Echostar instead of Direct TV. Wait a minute:( Qwest buying Echostar, no, no, think about Hillary instead, groan, where is my coffee.;)

Re: Makes sense to me....

While remotely possible, this deal seems unlikely at best.
Still, some think talk of a merger is a bit premature. Thomas , an analyst with Oppenheimer & Co., said he doesn't think a deal is likely anytime soon. Instead, he thinks AT&T may take a wait-and-see approach.

"Why would AT&T want to buy EchoStar when they already have the alliance now?" he said. "Strategically, I don't see motivation for doing it. The company is too far along on its own rollout."

There's also the issue of whether or not AT&T should be taking on another deal so soon. The SBC/AT&T merger just closed in December.

Buy them out now to offer TV, then kill them off when they start offering their IPTV or migrate customers who can get it to IPTV and offer Echostar to those who can't.

Makes perfect sense.
