    There's still plenty of competition out there. Sprint and Verizon both have unique advantages over AT&T T-Mo both and they'll continue to own a large enough portion of the market share.

    My main concern with AT&T's takeover of T-Mobile, and what you may need to eventually write your Congressman about, is this:

    What's going to happen to the T-Mobile gal, Carly What's-Her-Name ?

    I hope it doesn't go through. I don't see my plan with T-Mobile doing anything but going up after this acquisition.

    I'm sure it'll go through. Historically things like this don't get this far unless they already know it's gonna get approved. There are exceptions, but for the most that's been the case.

    Competition is bad for profits. Profits pay for campaign finance. I have AT&T so welcome to the family.
