Deutsche Telekom said it is considering a combination between T-Mobile and the prepaid carrier. And MetroPCS also confirmed that the talks are ongoing.
Could MetroPCS and T-Mobile merge?
(Credit: Greg Sandoval/CNET )T-Mobile USA's parent, Deutsche Telekom AG, and MetroPCS confirmed today that they are in talks to combine operations.
Both companies sent out statements confirming recent speculation that a potential deal was brewing. Here are their respective comments:
Deutsche Telekom:
Deutsche Telekom is holding talks with the listed company MetroPCS with the aim of operating its subsidiary T-Mobile USA and MetroPCS within one company in which Deutsche Telekom would hold the majority of shares.
The talks are at a stage where significant issues have not yet been finalized, contracts have not yet been signed and the conclusion of the transaction is still not certain. The Board of Management and Supervisory Board of Deutsche Telekom have therefore not yet taken the resolutions necessary for such a transaction.
And MetroPCS:
MetroPCS today confirmed that it is in discussions with Deutsche Telekom regarding an agreement to combine T-Mobile USA and MetroPCS. There can be no assurances that any transaction will result from these discussions, and the company does not intend to comment further unless and until an agreement is reached.
With the growing dominance in the U.S. of the two largest wireless providers in AT&T and Verizon Wireless, the industry is ripe for consolidation. Where AT&T failed to buy T-Mobile, DT is hoping it will have more success buying MetroPCS and merging the two U.S. operations together.

T-Mobile, a national player, would benefit from the subscribers and spectrum from regional prepaid wireless provider MetroPCS. T-Mobile's increasing move into the prepaid business means a lot easier transition if the two businesses combined.
Sprint Nextel had reportedly attempted to buy MetroPCS in an attempt to increase its size. The carriers operate in a business where size matters, and the larger the company, the bigger the advantages.
DT and MetroPCS, meanwhile, both warned that the talks were still early and that no contracts have been signed.
Because of size of both carriers -- T-Mobile being the fourth-largest national carrier, and MetroPCS just a regional company -- any potential deal would likely see a smooth regulatory approval process relative to recent deals such as the failed AT&T/T-Mobile merger attempt and Verizon Wireless's purchase of spectrum from the cable providers.
There are other complications, however, to a potential deal. MetroPCS runs off of a network technology called CDMA, which is incompatible with T-Mobile's GSM-based network. MetroPCS has migrated to 4G LTE in some of its markets, but still has a CDMA backbone. T-Mobile, meanwhile, is looking to upgrade to 4G LTE next year, with DT promising to invest $ 4 billion over the next three years on network upgrades.
T-Mobile recently raised $ 2.4 billion by leasing the rights to its cellular towers to cell tower operator Crown Castle.

Answer by Miranda C
No. Starting a sentence with because or since does not qualify as a sentence.
Answer by brunnette4beauty
In this case, it would be considered acceptable by some grammarians because it is a direct response to a question. However, a lot of grammarians just disargee with starting a sentence with because. I agree with the construction, it would be redundant to say, "He is getting a ride to work because his car is in the shop." Language develops, and in conversation it is natural and sensible. Grammer is meant to make usage standard, but it isn't because nobody agrees. Just go with what seems right. No grammer nerd should ever attack you for that.
Answer by Lauren W
no its not a complete sentence. it would be "He's getting a ride because his car's in the shop." You can start a sentence with because and it can still be a sentence.. such as "Because his car's still in the shop, he's getting a ride to work."
Answer by Bad Kitty!
It's okay to speak in sentence fragments -- we do it all the time. However, it's not okay in written language. It's a subordinating clause, and thus is a fragment, not a sentence. It's fine to begin a sentence with "because" followed by a subordinating clause, as long as you then complete the thought with an independent clause. "Because his car was in the shop, he is getting a ride to work." The statement, "Dab, Dad," is a sentence. It's unrelated to "because (anything)." "Dab, Dad" is a command, where the subject "you" is understood (YOU dab, Dad). Like saying "go away" or "pick that up." Those are all complete sentences, not fragments.
Answer by Volusian
It's a sentence! Is 'His car was in the shop' a sentence? Then why isn't 'Because his car was in the shop' a sentence? The responder provided a reason to the question that was asked. IT"S A SENTENCE! You are correct! Sentences may begin with 'because' and this is one of them. "It is perfectly acceptable to start certain sentences with Because, as long as the sentence contains a cause-and-effect relationship: "Because the principal will not be in the building, the assembly has been postponed." This is a proper sentence, because there is a definite cause-and-effect implied. Some writers, however, may choose to use "Because" at the beginning of a sentence without such a relationship. Why would they do this? Because it works under the right circumstances." You example is the 'right circumstances,' as is the last sentence in the quoted paragraph above. In your example you have a question followed by a 'because' answer. http://www.wisegeek.com/are-you-really-not-allowed-to-start-a-sentence-with-and-but-or-because.htm

Answer by Mike
shop can be used as a verb while store can not. tey are pretty much the same meaning but one can be a verb
Answer by Trish JPA and Jewish Pastafarian
A shop implies a very small store, particularly one run as a family business, or a boutique-style establishment. A store is any place housed in a building that sells something - a "brick and mortar" store is one that exists physically, as opposed to an "online store," which exists primarily in cyberspace. I would say that "store" is used more in the U.S. simply because we tend toward larger places as opposed to a "mom-and-pop shop." Both words can also be used as verbs; to shop means to go to purchase something (or at least look at what's for sale); to store means to put something into storage for use at a later date.
Answer by Lissa Lu
I think they are used equally in the US, however shop's tend to be non-franchised businesses with less square footage.

The clock is quickly winding down to the official launch of Windows 8. Along with a completely redesigned interface and Windows experience, hardware partners are lined up, ready to offer Windows 8 ultrabooks. The question businesses and consumers will need to answer, though, is whether or not a Windows 8 ultrabook makes sense.
The short answer is, “Noâ€. If you’re in a hurry, you’re welcome. If you have a few minutes, though, read on. I’ll explain why I believe Windows 8 ultrabooks aren’t a wise purchase right now.
In a few short weeks the Windows 8 era will begin, but right now the anticipation of the next-generation flagship OS from Microsoft seems tepid at best. There’s a confluence of factors that could impact the initial success of Windows 8â€"Windows 7 is very popular and still gaining market share, Windows 8 seems uniquely suited to touchscreen hardware, and ultrabooks don’t seem to be delivering the bang for the buck necessary to deliver what users are looking for.
Let’s look at each of those factors a little more closely:
Windows 7
It took a while for Windows 7 to knock Windows XP off the pedestal to assume its rightful place as the number one desktop operating system, but it finally did so a few months ago. Windows 7 is very popular, and both businesses and consumers are still making the switch from older versions of Windows to Windows 7 in droves.
Windows 7 is a solid, proven operating system. It seems like Windows 7 will be the new Windows XPâ€"the OS that people love, and refuse to upgrade from without a very compelling reason.
Touchscreen
The problem, then, for Microsoft is that Windows 8 doesn’t seem to present a very strong case for upgrading from Windows 7.
There are some unique tablet / ultrabook hybrid devices coming to market. Windows 8 has a bit of a split personality. The main “Modern†(formely “Metroâ€) interface is comprised of colorful tiles, designed to run mobile-style apps, and uniquely engineered to be used as on a touchscreen device. Behind that veil, is “desktop modeâ€, which is essentially Windows 7.
On a touchscreen device like the Microsoft Surface tablet, Windows 8 will probably shine. However, using Windows 8 on traditional desktop or laptop hardware with no touchscreen leaves a little to be desired. It basically feels like you’re still using Windows 7, but you have to jump through some extra hoops to get past the Modern UI to run the software you need to run.
Ultrabooks
So, that brings us to the ultrabooks. An ultrabook is basically just a thinner, lighter laptopâ€"a’ la the Apple MacBook Air. Ultrabooks cost significantly more than comparable processing horsepower in a larger notebook, generally lack built-in peripherals like DVD drives in order to save space, and yet still don’t have touchscreen technology.
One lofty estimate for ultrabook sales was recently cut in half due to underwhelming results thus far. The launch of Windows 8, and the impending holiday season will probably create a spike in ultrabook sales, but overall the demand simply doesn’t seem to match expectations.
For Windows 8, it seems like a better alternative would be a tablet. The tablet is designed to be used as a touchscreen device, and is suited to take advantage of the unique features of Windows 8.
Many vendors are offering hybrid solutionsâ€"Windows 8 tablets with a physical keyboard docking station that turns it into a convertible tablet / ultrabook mashup. If the price is right, a tablet hybrid could be a better platform for Windows 8, a more versatile mobile device for users, and deliver better bang for the buck than a Windows 8 ultrabook.

Ask Maggie offers advice on choosing between the two hottest smartphones on the market: iPhone 5 or Galaxy S3. And she explains why she didn't consider Sprint's iPhone 5.
There are so many factors to consider when buying a new smartphone and choosing a wireless service. The truth is that what's good for one consumer may not satisfy the needs of another.
In this edition of Ask Maggie, I offer some buying advice for a consumer considering the iPhone 5 and the Samsung Galaxy S3. It's not an easy decision. These devices are both excellent choices. I also explain to a different reader why I didn't even consider Sprint's network when buying my iPhone 5. And I talk about the importance of network coverage in making that final decision.
Samsung Galaxy S3 vs. iPhone 5
Dear Maggie,
I have a question about smart phone selection. I've waited a long time to upgrade my Blackberry 9700 to an iPhone. (My wife and I are AT&T customers. I have an unlimited data plan. We both use Windows-based computers.) Last year when the iPhone 4s came out, I was disappointed that it wasn't the iPhone 5 with 4G LTE so I waited.
In the meantime, the Samsung Galaxy S3 arrived. Still, I went ahead and ordered the iPhone 5. I'm waiting for it to arrive, but I'm having second thoughts. I don't make or get many calls. I use the phone a lot more for productivity, travel, Internet access and entertainment. Because of this, I was really hoping the iPhone 5 screen would be bigger than it turned out to be.
The Samsung Galaxy S3 has a much larger display, has more configurability and expandability and seems to have most (if not all) of what I want. It is not straight-jacketed by iTunes. (A real plus in my book.) And, because of my Blackberry, I already have microUSB cables and chargers.
Still, as compelling as it might be on that side, there are some reasons that I am tending to stay with my iPhone choice. I have an iPad and I know I can keep many (if not all) of the same apps. This also means I already understand the user interface. Many of my relations (wife, kids, sister) all have iPhones. Since I work in IT and am reasonably tech savvy, I am not put off too much about learning Android. But I feel less confident about the other issues. Given my situation, are there enough compelling reasons to stay with iOS or would going to the Samsung Galaxy S3 be a better choice?
Thanks,
Tim
Dear Tim,
This is a tough decision. The Samsung Galaxy S3 is a terrific phone. And so is the Apple iPhone 5. In fact, CNET's Brian Tong said it was impossible to go wrong with either smartphone. In CNET's Prizefight between the two phones, the iPhone 5 only slightly edged out the Samsung Galaxy S3.
It's the battle you've been waiting for between the iPhone 5 and the Galaxy S3 before the Jelly Bean update. How does the cream of the crop match up? Let's get it on!
But there are plenty of reasons to choose the Samsung Galaxy S3 instead of the iPhone 5. For example, the market research firm IHS iSuppli just published a study in which it said that the display on the Samsung Galaxy S3 is superior to the new iPhone 5's display. According to the report, The Galaxy S3's display, which is just 1.1 millimeters thick, offers the full color gamut of the National Television System Committee or NTSC standard. By comparison, the iPhone 5, which measures 1.5 millimeters thick, offers only 72 percent of the standard color gamut.
Some people say this doesn't necessarily mean that the screen is really any better. CNET's own Jessica Dolcourt did a round up of the best screens on the market and she ranks the Samsung Galaxy SIII at the bottom, while giving high marks to the iPhone 5. You may need to check out the displays for yourself to determine which one is best for you.
Keep in mind, Android phones are more configurable than iOS devices. And that's still the case when you look at the iPhone 5 compared to the Samsung Galaxy S3. This means you'll have a lot more flexibility in customizing the Samsung Galaxy SIII than you would the iPhone 5. Given that you are an IT guy, I imagine you aren't afraid to play around with your device. My guess is you won't have any trouble adapting to the Samsung Galaxy SIII. The Ice Cream Sandwich user interface is not that complicated to use. And the interface will only get better once it's upgraded to Android 4.1 Jelly Bean.
I also agree that it's very nice to be able to use any microUSB cable and charger with your smartphone. I've had a lot of devices pass through my home over the years, and it is nice when I don't have to hunt through my drawer to find just the right charger for each device. It also means that I can leave chargers in different places. I have one that I keep in my bedroom. Another I have in the living room, and a third one I leave at the office. This way, I'm never without a charger when the battery goes low.
I used to be able to do the same thing with my iPhone 3GS, since it used the same charger as my iPod. (Plus I had previously owned an iPhone 3G and kept that charger.) But the fact that Apple has changed the charging input in this version of the iPhone and the fact that it's not a standard microUSB is a pain in the butt. It doesn't seem like a big deal, but I think you're smart to consider this practical aspect when deciding which device to get, especially if you're already on the fence.
It sounds like you aren't necessarily a fan of iTunes, which again will give you more freedom to go with an alternative to the iPhone. When I was deciding which new smartphone to get, I was also deciding between the iPhone 5 and the Samsung Galaxy S3.
As I've mentioned in this column previously, I was sucked into iTunes very early. All of my music, which I like to listen to everyday on my commute to and from work, is in iTunes. It's been too much of a pain to convert it over to the Samsung Galaxy S2 I've been using for six months, so I've been musicless on my smartphone since my old iPhone died. So for me, I want iTunes back on my device. And that's why I decided on the iPhone 5.
But if you're not a fan of iTunes and you aren't locked into the software, then by all means go Android. As for your concerns over sharing apps with your iPad, it may not be as big of a deal as you might think. You are correct that some of the apps you have for your iPad will work on your iPhone 5. But not of all of them will.
And depending on the apps you use, you can also download those same apps on the Galaxy S3. If many of the apps you use are free, it shouldn't be a big deal. Re-downloading apps isn't that cumbersome. For example, apps like the Internet radio service Pandora or e-reader app Kindle are free and you can access your same account regardless of whether you're on your Android device or an iOS device.
Of course, things get trickier when you have apps on your device that cost money. But the good news is that many of the apps that you have pay for on an iOS device are free on an Android product. There are some apps that are not offered on both platforms. But the most popular apps will likely be available to you on Android.
You may even discover some that aren't available for iOS. For example, Google Maps and Navigation are superior to Apple's new mapping service. And I'd argue that mapping and navigation are probably more useful than many of the other apps on a smartphone. So even though app consistency might be an issue, I don't think it should be a deal-breaker for you.
Then there's that other issue you brought up about your friends and family also using iPhones. Should you get an iPhone 5, you can text other iPhone users via iMessage and automatically bypass the text messaging service from your carrier. That is a nice feature. But you can download other apps on your Android device that allow you to do the same thing. Again, I don't think that should be a deal-breaker for you. It's a minor benefit.
So what should you do? My advice to you is to check out the iPhone 5 since you've already ordered it, and it's on the way to your house. In the meantime, stop into an AT&T store and check out the Samsung Galaxy S3. See how you feel about the look and feel of the devices once you have them in your hands.
But honestly, based on what you've shared about your preferences and your needs, I don't see any compelling reasons for you to stay with the iPhone 5. Either way, I think you will be much happier than you are now with your current BlackBerry. I hope this advice was helpful, and good luck!
Why no love for Sprint's LTE for the iPhone 5?
Dear Maggie,
In your column about which iPhone to buy, you mentioned the options from AT&T and Verizon, but left out Sprint. I'm on AT&T's unlimited plan and do a fair amount of streaming audio. Is Sprint really not a viable option for 4G LTE? Is their system really not that good? I'm leaning toward Verizon, but hate the thought of having to keep track of data usage and the extra cost. Your columns are great!
Thanks for your help!
Frugal Consumer
Dear Frugal Consumer,
Thanks for bringing this up. I have nothing against Sprint. And in fact, I would love to see strong competition in the mobile market. It would be wonderful if consumers didn't even need to consider network coverage or network reliability when deciding which carrier to choose. But the truth is that those things still matter. And as wireless operators transition from 3G to 4G service, these issues will become even more of a deciding factor for potential subscribers. Personally, I'm crossing my fingers that Sprint, T-Mobile and some of the other smaller providers on the market can really give AT&T and Verizon a run for their money.
The reason I didn't consider Sprint for the iPhone 5 is because the carrier is woefully behind AT&T and Verizon in terms of its LTE buildout. Currently, the carrier only offers LTE in 19 cities, most of which are in Texas, Kansas and Georgia. If you live in those areas and you don't travel much, then Sprint's coverage might be fine. But if you are like me and you don't live in any of these areas and you travel often and even frequent places where Sprint's regular 3G coverage is spotty at best, then Sprint isn't a great choice.
As I have said many times in this column, network coverage is the most important factor that you should look for when considering a wireless operator. Earlier this month, Sprint announced that it will be rolling out LTE in more than 100 cities where it already offers 3G service "in the coming months." Cities included in this list are Boston, Chicago, Los Angeles, New York, Washington D.C., and cities in Puerto Rico. This is great news. But unfortunately, I don't think it's enough to satisfy my needs.
I live in New York City, which has historically gotten great Sprint coverage, but I spend a lot of time at my family's house in Delaware. Even though Sprint's coverage map says it offers service in this area and even though it has a retail store just outside of town, the service is terrible in the town where my father lives. I dropped Sprint a long time ago because of these issues. And despite my best efforts to get Sprint executives to do something about the coverage in my favorite little piece of the world, the company hasn't improved its coverage there.

- Why you should wait for the iPad Mini
For me, the lack of coverage in a town I visit often is a deal breaker. That said, there are plenty of people who live, work, and visit areas where Sprint has great coverage. And those people should definitely consider Sprint a possible alternative.
The reality is that AT&T and Verizon Wireless have the footprint that I need. And I chose Verizon because it is the furthest in its LTE deployment. As I mentioned in my previous article, Verizon covered 230 million potential customers in 337 markets with its LTE network at the end of the second quarter of 2012. This is more than all the other carriers building LTE combined.
By the end of the year, Verizon expects to cover about 260 million people in more than 400 markets. By contrast, AT&T's LTE network covers only about 80 million people in the U.S. today, and it will add only another 70 million by the end of the year.
Sprint is working hard to expand its network. And in another year, maybe its network will look more attractive compared to the other carriers. The company has said it will serve more than 250 million potential customers with LTE by the end of 2013.
But I'm looking to buy an iPhone 5 today. And I don't want to wait two months or two years for my carrier to expand its network to support the faster network speeds I need today. The contract I sign for my new iPhone 5 will last two years. If Sprint is able to catch up and provide a service that is as good or better than Verizon and costs less, then I will definitely consider switching. Until then, I plan to suck it up and pay Verizon more than I'd like to spend on wireless service, because I know it's going to provide the fastest and most reliable LTE service for me where I need it.
This issue of network coverage is crucial to keeping competition alive in the wireless market. And I'd argue that this is a great example of why consumers need to pay attention to what's happening at the FCC when it comes to policies around wireless spectrum and data roaming.
It's no coincidence that AT&T and Verizon Wireless own most of the lower frequency wireless spectrum and also have the largest network footprints in the country. Lower frequency spectrum can transmit data over longer distances and penetrate through more obstacles.
This means that carriers using lower frequency spectrum can use fewer towers when building their networks to cover the same area. That saves them money. And because the spectrum can penetrate through buildings and other obstacles better, lower frequency spectrum can provide better in-building coverage. As a result, when you look at how carriers value their spectrum assets, there is almost a two-to-one difference in the book value of lower frequency spectrum (holdings below 1GHz) compared to higher frequency spectrum (holdings above 1GHz.)
AT&T and Verizon Wireless are well positioned with sub-1GHz wireless spectrum. By contrast, Sprint and T-Mobile are not in a great position here. High frequency spectrum is not worthless, by any means. It can pack in more capacity, but because it travels over shorter distances, carriers need to put the towers closer together. This makes building a network more costly. And for this reason, carriers with a lot of higher frequency spectrum generally serve densely populated areas like cities more easily than suburbs and rural communities.
The FCC is preparing an auction for 2014 in which it will auction off lower frequency spectrum from broadcast TV stations. The big question is whether carriers such as Sprint, T-Mobile and even smaller players like Leap Wireless, which owns the Cricket brand, will get some of this lower frequency spectrum. If AT&T and Verizon Wireless once again end up with the bulk of it, it will make it difficult for smaller players like Sprint or T-Mobile to compete.
The rules and policies around this auction are being discussed now. Just last week, the FCC opened the issue for public comment.
Roaming agreements with larger operators could help smaller players fill these coverage gaps. But big carriers, such as Verizon, have resisted an FCC rule requiring them to offer reasonable roaming rates to competitors for data service. Verizon is even suing the FCC to block the rules. That said, Sprint and T-Mobile have joined the Competitive Carrier Association, a group formerly known as the Rural Cellular Association. This group represents more than 100 smaller regional carriers. So there's a chance that Sprint and T-Mobile could work with these carriers to extend their footprints to more rural areas. And the rural carriers could work with Sprint and T-Mobile for better urban access.
But one thing is clear, network coverage still matters. And unless smaller players are able to cobble together networks of their own or roaming agreements with other carriers, my options and yours will continue to be limited mostly to AT&T and Verizon.
