I know two miserable AT&T customers and I am rubbing my T-mobile happiness in pushing them to switch. Lol. T-mobile kicks ass and have a no bull shit policy.

@FCBacaR10 If the dollar keeps declining in value it might be cheaper to manufacture here.

@screwopenborders Yeah, I certainly don't want AT&T's prices or customer service, but, if T-Mobile can't survive on it's own, I'm not sure there's an alternative that would be preferable.

All I heard from Larry Cohen (President of CWA) was, blah blah blah I am taking lobby money from AT&T. And I would bet money that he is an AT&T customer. How the HELL can he say or anyone, that a Duopoly is good for consumers. For example: I was with Cingular for 3 yrs before "Ma Bell" acquired them, and I loved my service. I always got good CSR service and cell (quality) service. Then AT&T bought them. It all went down hill from there to date. AT&T are vampires and want to control it all.
