WAT. WAT. WAT. WAT. WAAAAAAAAAAAAAAAT?!!!!

Does that mean that AT&T will get a shit-ton of Androids? YESH! :3

Finally, a reason to have AT&T. To think that T-Mobile hated AT&T too.

You still need regulator approval before you can merge. I'm surprised that ATT wants to buy T-Mobile USA.

If approved, ATT will become the largest GSM service provider.

Yeah, this reminds me of this:

Of course they'll be approved... if not it's TEH SOCIALISMS! (ooooo scary!!)
Look at the Comcast/NBC merger that got approved.

Not really comparable, since Comcast and NBC weren't competitors (NBC's stake in Hulu aside).

I have a good plan on Tmobile too.....Am I going to get screwed by this?

Probably. T-Mobile customers will probably be converted to AT&T's horrible cellular service.

You guys have been extremely screwed over.

 

[Clydefrosch]

i've got the feeling that t-mobile kinda made a huge mistake here ./

Hopefully they'll take over the wireless towers as well so technically AT&T's coverage shouldn't suck as much as before.

I left AT&T when they sold me a shitty phone that broke, replaced it with the same phone 3 times and refused to offer me any sort of customer service. Now I'm with Sprint, and the only thing I can say is "Have fun, T-Mobile customers. You now have the crappy AT&T service while I sit back and use my awesome Sprint service."

Problem?

Well, T-Mobile covers America really well. If AT&T gets that tower coverage (as well as that 4G coverage), AT&T will blow Sprint out of the water.

No, cause I'm content with my service. And if people are content with theirs, then that's cool. I just hate everything AT&T did to me, so I'm a little butthurt, sure.

I also have a lot of friends that are with T-Mobile and swear it's terrible.

Well, EXXCCCUUUUUSSSSEEEE ME.

It's LTE. I know that. No need to have a fucking heart attack.

 

[abel009]

If you can't beat them, join them but in this case buy them. Now all we need is for verizon to buy sprint. And we're good to go.

 

[Advi]

yay, now GSM mobile service will be shittier than ever.

The only reason I'm using GSM is because of SIM card, which apparently in US there is a law preventing CDMA using R-UIM.
