Good Morning, interesting news:
NEW YORK, June 24 (Reuters) - AT&T Corp. was rumored to be close to an acquisition of cable television giant Tele-Communications Inc.(TCOMA - news), analysts and industry sources said Tuesday evening.

A merger would allow the combined companies to offer one-stop shopping to consumers for virtually all electronic services -- long-distance and cellular phone calls, cable TV and high-speed Internet access....

According to the Wall Street Journal, AT&T would take control over TCI's cable assets that include wholly owned systems reaching 10 million homes, plus stakes in systems reaching 11 million more homes in the U.S...

A purchase of TCI, which has been rumored on-and-off for months to be on the auction block, would give AT&T a direct link to consumers homes and a way to provide local telephone service using cable television wires instead of traditional phone lines....

AT&T has been hesitant to join with any cable company until they upgraded their cable networks to allow for both voice and data communications traffic.
