AT&T: The iPhone's Achilles' Heel

AT&T is the only pure American phone company around anymore. Verizon is 40% British. T-Mobile is 100% German. Sprint is turning over its network to foreign operation in some kind of lease. With their debt already rated junk its not surprising. AT&T is my telecom investment of choice. I'm a Mac user & have an Ipod. I love Apple stuff but I don't believe in Contract phone service. I have a Tracfone. Now that the woman from the "industry" tells me I'm using a Verizon reseller I'll drop them next year. Bell Atlantic is such a classier name than Verizon. But anyway its been a good long read including the fellow who started it all. AT&T & Apple are in my portfolio and I'm happy with their marriage. The Feds might be coming trying to reduce phone companies to commodity enterprises to please idiots. Hopefully President Obama will display some wisdom that this type of thinking will DOWNGRADE America.

Is the Deal Between Apple and AT&T Anti-Competitive?

Oh Sprint has just become a foreign network

Is the Deal Between Apple and AT&T Anti-Competitive?

T-Mobile is a German company. Verizon Wireless is a joint venture between Verizon, ( Bell Atlantic , Nynex, GTE, MCI is Verizon ), and a British Phone company that serves around the world. Only AT&T is a complete American company. It fits with Apple.

Apple's iTunes: Rapid Sales Acceleration

Taking on Sprint's debt would be a bold move indeed. I like the idea for Apple. One of the more interesting idea's I've run across for M&A.
