What's your opinion of AT&T's plans to purchase T-Mobile US from Deutsche Telekom
Although there were rumours that Sprint may purchase T-Mobile, it was still a massive surprise when reports started to emerge yesterday that a major US carrier plans to buy T-Mobile US from Deutsche Telekom - and the surprise was even bigger when it turned out this carrier isn't Sprint, but AT&T.

There are plenty of opinions about the news - some say prices will go down, some say prices will go up, but there are few people (if any) who doubt this is a major change from where we were just a day ago - AT&T will be the largest US carrier by some distance, and the only major GSM one.

After this huge news, it's time to ask you...

What's your opinion of AT&T's plans to purchase T-Mobile US from Deutche Telekom

Everyone will benefit if we have one rather than two GSM carriers in the US, as prices will go down, while we will see better data plans and faster LTE deployment.

T-Mo was a great option because it offered affordable handsets and data plans. It will be missed.

It's unknown whether FCC will approve the deal, but even if it goes through, it would still smell fishy - AT&T is going to be too big for the greater good.
