I am afraid that this merger is going to translate into the mega merger company sucking.

Think of the United Airlines and Continental merger....while many may disagree, I as a long time flyer (especially internationally) found that United was at one time a great airline and that Continental always sucked.

United is not the United it once was - it died - what was left was the sucky company Continental that branded itself with the United name.

Just talk to a United employee sometime - especially one that used to be a United employee before the merger....assuming they even exist anymore and didn't leave in protest or early retirement - it sucks.

I am afraid this will now happen with any remnants of T-Mobile and what we will be left with is shitty Sprint.

A sad day for mobile users and the options for us.
