It is surely a funny situation. Here in India - which is 1/3 the size of mainland US (minus Alaska) we have more than 10 national carriers. This keeps our mobile charges lowest in the world. The hardware employed by the carriers is the same and comes at a higher cost due to duty structure. All the phones sold are UNLOCKED. The phone numbers are portable. Even the CDMA phones can be transferred from one carrier to another. The country with probably the strongest anti-trust legislation on the statutes is allowing monopolistic mergers! Yes but then this is the democracy and free market preached by it to the rest of the world. No, thanks. I am happy with our "Socialistic Democracy" and government regulations looking after the interests of the consumer.
