and I believe that Nextel may not be as committed to 1X as they once were--they have trialed Flarion's stuff with a lot of success--having said that I believe that once BS is free of Cingular they will go after Sprint (all of it) and/or just the PCS part of it--it fits better with what they are doing in LA

If so, would this change the QChat agreement with Qualcomm? Or maybe it is a mute point anyway with the promise of Winphoria? In addition, what would the BS acquisition of PCS, have on the affiliates? Some of the affiliates are trading (Market Cap wise) lower than BK Globalstar. If BS wanted to rid itself of Cingular, Then would BS commit to the acquisition of VoiceStream? Seems to me the quickest way to reduce competition in the Nationwide providers is to create less of them. I personally like the idea of a AWE Voicestream merger, followed by reducing Cingulars availability to the networks that allow them to market themselves as a Nationwide Carrier. If you could force the otherwise quasi-nationwide providers who claim they are nationwide back into regional players. Then you are down to only 4 Nationwide providers!

Regards,
PCSTEL
