    Alltel/AT&T divested markets

    Dunno, AT&T has given themselves the option to divest whatever they don't want. If they choose to get rid of some PCS (probably makes the most sense), maybe T-Mobile or Sprint?

    Correct, sounds like someone at the FCC told them if they don't divest some spectrum it won't be approved...

    Fully built-out. AT&T has to do a new built anyway, may as well go to UMTS...

    That wimpy letter from AT&T commits them to do nothing of substance except for the build out of the HSPA network on the Pine Ridge Reservation within 12 months. Given AT&T's record that would amount to a miracle. Where I live AT&T purchased a fully built-out network from Dobson which closed November 2007. This is May 2010 and AT&T still has not put up HSPA--and this is a university town.

    Alltel/AT&T divested markets

    Just yesterday, AT&T filed a final commitment letter with the FCC. http://fjallfoss.fcc.gov/ecfs/docume...?id=7020469884

    This letter basically says "here's what we'll do to address all remaining concerns" - the FCC doesn't have to accept this, but usually these letters are written after much communication with the FCC and a very good understanding of what they want to see...

    Man I can't believe there's no update on this yet. I figured once the ATNI deal went through it would just be a matter of a week or two. Guess I was wrong. I wish the Tribe here in South Dakota would stop holding this deal up.

    There's this thing called google voice. Commercial alternatives are ringcentral, etc... though ringcentral support has been really sucking lately. At least thats the word on the net. ymmv

    You wont get a 702 number from Alltel. Alltel was never licensed in Clark County,which is the only area that has the 702 area code. There are still divested Alltel markets in Nevada in White Pine (Ely) and Elko counties. You could get a 775 area code number from Alltel based in one of these markets. Your best bet if you have to have a 702 number is Google Voice.
