Anti-trust regulators are gonna take a hard look at is.
There is a good chance that this won’t go through. This deal is bad for consumers as AT&T will have too much market power.
Average cell phone plans have only been going up. Verizon and AT&T will have unnaturally strong market power and although you may not be able to prove collusion, they do seem to do alot of signalling. The next operator will be distant third in terms of market share.
Ma Bell seems to be slowly but surely reconstituting itself according to that picture.
Text messaging is great…also highest profit margin service. It consumes very little bandwidth, yet some operators charge outrageous fees for overage or any unlimited plan over paltry few hundred message/ month plans.
Cell phones have become essential tools in everyday life, I don’t like getting ripped off.
By the way, some great realty apps on iPhone and android.
Location specific mapping stuff is great. Drive past a house and get full listing and pictures etc.
New barcode QR reader showing up alot, scan the barcode (really your cell phone camera) and pull up full listing details. I saw the QR barcodes in last Sunday’s UT realty section.
Realtor and Zillow apps my favorites. Any other good mobile realty apps?
