my mental meanderings...

First Cingular and AT&T, now Sprint and Nextel?

So last year Cingular bought AT&T, and now Sprint might be buying Nextel? Also, apparently Verizon had looked at acquiring either Sprint or Nextel, but decided against it. Maybe they can buy T-Mobile? Hmm...seems kind of like the hard disk drive business a couple of years ago when it started consolidating after a couple of companies started buying out their competition.

So a year later I wonder, has cell reception or service impoved at Cingular? So what's going to happen with the Sprint and Nextel deal? I kind of have a vested interest here since I am a Sprint customer and recently signed a two year agreement for my current contract. Maybe this cool national walkie-talkie feature will become more prevalent. Currently Sprint has only one phone with that capability the last time I checked.

Well, I guess only time will tell...
