Verizon just spent $10b to buy spectrum that covers 95% of the country and will use it for 4G LTE. Sprint, for five years or so now, is still trying to integrate iDen and CDMA companies, and, roll out it's ever delayed WiMax rather than LTE t obe used by AT&T/Verizon. It doesn't seem like a mess Verizon would want or need to sort out.

If the dollar continues to sink, Vodaphone may just buy up Verizon Wireless. Maybe T-Mobile will be knocking at Sprint's door. At today's exchange rate, $1USD only costs 0.63 Euros and the fire sale of dollars looks like it will get worse before it gets better, so, these companies may begin to look like a bargain.
