Wow, T-Mobile finally did an acquisition... another 1.1 million customers for them.

Bet ATT is upset that they'd didn't get to gobble 'em up first.

Your jrfdsf imitation is off a bit. You have to fly into a rage first, and then post 800 times about how my one post spams the forum with info that isn't strictly 'VZW-related'. 😁

I dunno... he was strangely nice the last time we exchanged posts. In a way, it freaked me out more than when he hated my guts. πŸ‘€

Well, it does effect VZW because that just makes one less carrier to have to port from...

Not to be rude, SystemShock, but we already have a forum well a few for this. I think you should just keep it in those. AT&T and other companies donΓƒΒ’Γ’β€šΒ¬β„’t care if T-mobile buys out Suncom, which is a horrible company.

Says the guy who's happy to go on at length about Sprint's WiMax plans and general corporate well-being on the VZW forum. Repeatedly. 🀣

Which I don't have a prob with, actually... the competitive landscape obviously does affect VZW. Like WiMax, this merger also is part of said landscape.

So I believe we can talk about stuff like this once in awhile, long as we don't go overboard. If I wanted a discussion site that was super-strict and Nazi-ish about such things, I'd spend 100% of my time at HoFo. πŸ™„

Enough with Nazi stuff. Jeez. (I am Jewish and Israeli)

Regardless, the competition with Sprint and Wimax and other carriers that I talk about in the forums have to deal with each other but T-mobile buying Suncom doesnΓƒΒ’Γ’β€šΒ¬β„’t expand any more of the competitive landscape because T-mobile doesnΓƒΒ’Γ’β€šΒ¬β„’t really benefit that much, especially since they already have some AWS spectrum in the areas in which Suncom operates.

Meh, I don't think so. Obviously, in markets where Suncom operates, it does affect VZW to some degree. It also could be a sign of a change of strategy for T-Mobile, i.e. acquisitions are good. 😎

Basically, you seem to be arguing that it's ok for you to not be strictly on-topic, but everyone else better be. Guess everyone wants to be a mod. πŸ™‚

In any case, I'm not gonna argue it for 547 posts or whatever like I did with jr. If you disagree, great. Noted. But I don't much care, to be honest.

No problem. So letΓƒΒ’Γ’β€šΒ¬β„’s end that we agree to disagree and end it at that.
