Cingular Wins bid for AT&T Wireless

Posted by CmdrTaco on from the game-of-consolidation dept.

Newer Guy writes "Cingular has won the bidding war for AT&T Wireless with an offer of $15 a share, or about $40.5 billion." This means Vodafone is out, and the number of competitors for wireless devices in the US is down by one.

    All phone companies are evil. Some are more evil than others. Cingular is worse than even SprintPCS. I liked AT&T Wireless... until now. I'm leaving them for another carrier, probably US Cellular or t-Mobile. And I'm taking my number with me. And if they ask me why I'll tell them Cingular sucks ass.
