T-Mobile talking merger with MetroPCS

Sprint had nearled acquired MetroPCS. That, of course, fell apart as well. Now we have a new report: Deutsche Telekom, parent company of T-Mobile USA, is in talks to merge with MetroPCS. Deutsche Telekom would own the new venture, but it would be listed publicly; T-Mobile USA is currently not listed on any stock exchange. We’ve heard plenty of these merger rumors before, but have seen little actual movement. It appears T-Mobile is considering other options as well, including an initial public offering, sale, or merger with a larger carrier such as Sprint. Via BusinessWeek.]]>
