As we're sure that most you guys are aware by now, AT&T's attempt to buyout T-Mobile failed. Ever since then, there have been rumors that suggested that T-Mobile USA's parent company, Deutsche Telekom, was looking for alternatives. We've heard talks of possible mergers, and at one point it was even suggested that T-Mobile and MetroPCS were in talks about a possible merger. So far all these rumors have been rumors with nothing officially announced, at least until now when Deutsche Telekom's chief executive, Rene Obermann, revealed (via Bloomberg) that while a complete sale of the carrier was unlikely, a merger could still be an option.
Ubergizmo, Deutsche Telekom says that T-Mobile USA merger option is still on the table
