It wouldn’t surprise ME if Sprint’s fortunes keep declining big V could be on the prowl again. Then of course ATT has no choice but to try to gobble up TMobile and the other smaller GSM carriers.

Just like we’ve seen major consolidation in fixed-line phone (since the 7 baby bells starting buying each other), consolidation of the wireless providers is inevitable. XM and Sirius are merging. What’s next, cable TV? How long before Comcast or Cox or TWC makes a bid for one of the others?
