Who are these analysts who think there will be lots of M&A? I haven't heard anything on that front, other than the recurring 10 year rumore DT and Sprint will merge.

Like eric who commented before me. many of us came to tmobile because of google. Yahoo sucks. Apple and google are the best in their fields for reason. While yahoo has one foot in the grave. I think phil is right. If and when yahoo goes under they'll probably go running back to google This was a gay move by yahoo.

One of the key factors in people purchasing the G1 at least in conversations I've had the reason is not just android but google overall... Honestly what is the point of total integration of google search/gmail etc... if you are forced to use an out dated and inferior search engine.... that is why yahoo isn't doing well..... and to the comment regarding people not caring about mobile search or staying with what they are given like they did with IE that may have been true 3 years ago but with more wide spread use of 3g and capable phones including true internet browsing this will not last.... As to the comment that they do not want to limit to one vendor than they should allow you to choice your preferred search engine as you can in/with most browsers....

This is doubly smart when dealing with a vendor as big and as ruthless as Google. If T-Mobile had gone with Google for search, it would have been a surprise.

I'll drop T-Mobile and go back to Verizon. I wont have it. Yahoo! is ancient news now... their search engine is simply inferior and I don't want to have anything to do with it. I don't care how much Yahoo! paid T-Mobile... this was a poor choice because consumers want Google for searching. That seems obvious... and in the end it should be in T-Mobile's best interest to give it's customers what they want.
