Is alltel gunna get the iPhones?

[Britt Lynn]

I want an iphone so are they ever going to?
AT&T bought Alltel from Verizon though so since that happened they should get them right?

Alltel is essentially dead, being bought out by Verizon, so they are in the process or transitioning to Verizon.
Verizon getting the iPhone has been a rumor as of late, but most think it would be sometime in 2011.

You are right. In some ironic twist some former Verizon customers may end up with iPhones through that acquisition.

Hi.Alltel is not getting the iPhone. What the heck are you talking about how AT&T bought Alltel? That is false info. Verizon still has Alltel.

Verizon Wireless has agreed to acquire Alltel from the private equity firms that currently own the nation's fifth-largest national wireless provider. Verizon Wireless will acquire Alltel's assets, including 13 million customers and coverage in 57 markets where it has no presence, as well as Alltel's debt. The merged companies will surpass AT&T's 71 million customers to become the nation's largest provider of wireless goods and services with 80 million customers. The move will greatly expand the regions where Alltel's customers can roam without incurring fees, and also gives Verizon's customers greater freedoms in the rural markets where Verizon previously had no coverage.
