AT&T Buys T-Mobile

Mashable.com reports that AT&T has bought T-Mobile for $39 billion.

For T-Mobile customers (like myself) this could be a good thing, because AT&T has the iPhone as well as many other features that T-Mobile does not currently have. Many T-Mobile customers that have questions regarding this change, and it seems so strange that since T-Mobile is putting out commercials about 4G that it is about to be bought out by AT&T.

PC Magazine reports that this could be a huge in for AT&T - because AT&T would become the nation's largest carrier and get better coverage, 34 million more customers and an opponent is eliminated.

It also reports that T-Mobile's owner has been struggling and T-Mobile has been in the fourth place spot as a carrier.

This is unfortunate for T-Mobile employees who will be facing major lay offs.

The lack of choices will be unfortunate for the consumers because there will be less to choose from and not as much flexibility.

For those with questions read the PC Magazine post that answers questions for the specific consumers of T-Mobile and AT&T by clicking here.
