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.
