Re: next
Agreed! I think it was a good idea in theory, but I just hope that Verizon can keep up with other mobile services now.

Sounds like a mess! I wouldn't want to deal with that, ever.

Whatever Verizon does, let's hope it goes better than the Verizon/Frontier deal which has been a disaster from the start.  Smart for Verizon to unload all of its outdated telephone lines to someone else: Dumb that Frontier wasn't prepared for it.

Re: Hot and Fresh
@Michelle: There is no doubts about that. That next bigger thing will surely be coming for all os us to follow. But how big will be the key question.

Agree with you both about Verizon. We will all stay tuned to witness more such deals in near future.

Re: next
Yes, what about Verizon? They need more mergers too. I honestly couldn't come up with one company that could merge...

I'm sure this isn't the last, but I coudn't come up with other companies that might merge. Maybe there's something else out there for Verizon? What about overseas? Liberty Global and John Malone are surely plotting another M&A of some sort.

Re: Hot and Fresh
@ms.a It sounds like CenturyLink is heading for something even bigger in the future. The Level3 acquisition seems like a big buy. I wonder what else is next.

Re: Virtualization
My firm will be happy because we use both of them and hopefully the enhanced infrastructure and resources will help boost reliability and connectivity worldwide.  Domestically we don't typically have problems with Level 3 - it is mostly internationally.

Re: Virtualization
That was a pretty fast courtship - -almost a whirlwind merger.
