It's not as far fetched as this article makes it sound. 4G expansion as well as Uverse/DSL requires money. It's impossible to improve infrastructure without it. Obviously, AT&T feels this will be a profitable venture and surely if approved, the FCC will require promises on their part. Improving infrastructure is ALWAYS in the mix. For further proof of this...see the SBC/Ameritech deal then go and check out the SBC/ATT deal. I'm all for it so long as it improves service/coverage and for as long as their is at least 1-2 other choices for the consumer.
