I personally hope the merger doesn't happen. The last thing America needs is more consolidation in the wireless market.Especially with Helio being taken by Virgin, that leaves 4 or 5 major players in the market (Cricket... dunno if that's big enough to be major; same with Tracfone).
... then again, China only has three mobile carriers and it manages to offer dirt-cheap pricing and quality service. And before you all complain about terrain or something like that- China Mobile stuck towers on Mt. Everest; anything America has pales in comparison.
