Sprint + Tmobile USA?

ATT has a push to talk service.

If other carriers do this, will Sprint keep bothering with Nextel?

Altel was in service instate a couple of months ago. They were in the foothills and above. I think they were bought out but not sure as the storefronts were still there in Sept.

Any area with varied terrain is hard for any carrier. TMO is trying. I got service in Moab the past couple of years. Depending on the phone, even in Arches NP. The Vulcan's Nokia 6085 does really well with weak signals. The Nexus doesn't do anything.
 
As a prepaid customer, I'm curious to see what effect this merger would have for Boost & Virgin Mobile if it goes through.

Nothing good..

I know even if they both used the Same network technology I wouldn't have any better coverage. The coverage maps in my area look almost the same between Sprint and T Mobile.
 
All this is is an attempt to absorb the subscribers as well as put an end to the 'UnCarrier' program. Improving service is not an objective.
