TracFone and Net10 are owned by America Movil. Net10 at the moment is strictly GSM MVNO, and TracFone is a CDMA, GSM, and TDMA MVNO. Difference, besides the name, l,ogo, and network, is plan rates.

I don't know. I wonder the same thing about Cricket and METRO PCS.

CricKet and MetroPCS are not the same company, or owned by the same company. Leap Wireless, CricKet's parent company, and MetroPCS are possibly talking of a merger.

If I understand it right, Net 10 is a subsidiary of TracFone, which is a subsidiary of American Movil, which is controlled by one man in Mexico City, and he is either the richest or second richest man in the world, depending on your source.
