The New Wireless Landscape

Where is AT&T Wireless? Where is Sprint? Where is Nextel? Well, enter the age of consolidation in the wireless industry. Recently, two big mergers took place. Cingular acquired AT&T Wireless, and Spring and Nextel merged, forming Spring Nextel. Is it a good thing. I don’t really know. But I think it will be, as the acquisitions give the combined companies more muscle. More strength to compete. More money to improve their networks. That what I hope for. But what we are left with, is three big companies (oligarchy ???), and a small one, bound to be acquired by somebody. The risk here is that they might all raise prices. Hopefully that will not happen too soon.

Here is the breakdown of the current status.
