T-Mobile USA and Clearwire in merger rumour
First it was T-Mobile UK and Orange’s joint venture. Next it was T-Mobile USA linked with Sprint Nextel. Now it’s reported that T-Mobile USA’s parent (Deutsche Telekom) could be interested in MetroPCS and Clearwire instead. That would also explain the Sprint story, because Sprint Nextel owns 51% of Clearwire. [Source: Bloomberg.com]
