Deutsche Telekom mulls IPO for T-Mobile USA

I guess their idea of buying out Sprint is history.

 

Going for youth and budget-minded customers can only do so much. When you got the Goliaths hammering home how much coverage they have, T-Mobile cannot compare in that area. On top of that now you got all the MVNOs coming off with extremely cheap plans. T-Mobile does have to change something....

 

The way things are going we're going to be stuck with just two carriers of any size.

 

Here is the story in the WSJ

Deutsche Telekom Weighs IPO for T-Mobile USA - WSJ.com

 

I think Wal-Mart should buy them! KIDDING! Not really.

I hope we don't go to a two carrier system. I think if T-Mobile focuses on prepaid only including data, it could carry them. They need to be more like a Metro PCS/Cricket. When will those two merge. OK, never mind........... ADD moment.

I think T-Mobile has a future as long as they don't try to be like the big boys. After all, many people don't like the big boys.

 

This report is very interesting I am optimistic that an IPO would be a good thing for the market though, and for Tmobile. Nothing like money into the market to help the economy, could have a trickle down effect let the bidding begin. I am confused though this report conflicts with some internal news that is not released, interesting to say the least though.

 

If T-mo dies, AT&T will be unstoppable. I don't think this will happen. Virgin mobile or some other Euro company will buy out T-mo if it comes to worse.
