Sprint joins fight against AT&T x T-Mobile merger

So, authorities are fighting against the incoming merger between AT&T and T-Mobile...

I've never hear this thing coming when that kind of merger comes with controversies....

And now, another one joins the fight against the AT&T x T-Mobile merger....

It's probably Sprint Nextel...

According to Sprint, if that merger of these two companies is accomplished, there will be less competition, high costs, restrict access to handsets, and it will ruin the future of these companies.

Last week, the Department of Justice filed an antitrust lawsuit seeking to stop this controversial merger. That suit claims that this merger would violate antitrust laws that were made to prevent such monopolies and duopolies.

So what now? Is there any way to stop these two companies to collide each other?

AT&T and US T-Mobile come collide, and still no iPhone for T-Mobile yet...

Well, it had to happen. The two rival cellphone providers, AT&T (famed for selling the Apple iPhone), and T-Mobile USA (the US subsidiary of Deutsche Telekom, also famous for the myTouch android phone) are now collide, after AT&T bought the US T-Mobile from Deutsche Telekom at the cost of 39 billion US Dollars. Talk about joint custody.


Also, check out the Q&A about what would happen since AT&T bought the North American T-Mobile at http://newsroom.t-mobile.com/articles/more-information-att-acquires-tmobile

What disappoints me, even with the new partnership, T-Mobile still doesn't offer Apple's iPhone like what AT&T (and now Verizon) do. The T-Mobile's myTouch 4G is their flagship offering and also the Samsung Galaxy S.

MY COMMENT: Looks like AT&T and US T-Mobile are now Stick Together to Rethink Possible! Good luck on that new partnership!
