This deal won't be done until August... then won't close until the 3rd quarter. A lot can happen before this thing really is a done deal.

Still... this is the best news we've heard in a long time. I think it's true that the market doesn't understand this deal... come on... 2/3 of the company is gone! At least WE can see the bigger picture.

Also consider the Vz discount.

Also consider that China is now MORE capitalistic than the US of A and Canada. I'm really not sure how Vz is going to sell this.

Incredibly I'm now rooting for Chavez in the coming elections :-O (if it will get this deal done)

If you were the Soviets... how would you be feeling right now??
