Probably MediaOne had heard something like "It's out best offer, take it or leave it" from Comcast. MediaOne didn't realize it is worth much more than 48B until T made its bid and showed its willingness to get MediaOne.

MediaOne knows that Comcast will be hard-pressed to top T's bid without Strong outside help. By strong, I mean the commitment involving stock and/or cash.

I believe T has a much better chance to get MediaOne. So far, it is real stock/cash commitment. Others remain to be seen as real or fake offer. Anyway, it is always interesting to watch bid war being unfolded.
