At some point in 2012, we expect AT&T’s acquisition of T-Mobile to be approved and the first steps of the process of integrating the two networks to take place. Among the many people who disapprove of this deal, Sprint has the most to lose. Dan Hesse, Sprint’s CEO (pictured above), has been touring the country…
If you haven’t noticed, not everyone thinks that sunshine and puppy dogs will come from AT&T’s acquisition of T-Mobile USA, many of which have had no problems voicing that opinion, either.

AT&T has just announced a great new plan for GoPhone users, which offers up unlimited Talk and Text, with different data options. The plan is set to go live on June 26th, and should be a great plan to go with the LG Thrive Android phone. Existing GoPhone customers can choose to switch to the…
