02 May 09 T-Mobile UK Forced to Merge or Else
Timotheus Hoettges the CFO from Deutsche Telekom, the mothership of all T-Mobiles out there, said at a recent shareholder meeting that T-Mobile UK will have to merge with another carrier or else face the possibility of going under. That’s not exactly a nice prospect is it? Hoettges said that:”in our view consolidation is a means to take excess capabilities out of the market,” and that “nothing is unthinkable on our side.”
So what carrier will T-Mobile UK choose for its future merger? Is it going to be 3 which is ranked as the fifth UK carrier, or will it be one of the other important 3: O2, Orange and Vodafone?

[...] T-Mobile’s G2, or whatever it’s going to be called, will pleasantly surprise you when it arrives soon. The phone will be available in white too, but most importantly the phone will come with a 5 megapixel camera instead of the regular 3.2 megapixel camera we were expecting. Walmart will start selling the G2 sometime in July and it will cost you $179 when purchased with a 2-year agreement.
