To be specific, I'm pretty sure T-Mobile was the only other provider who used the same type of phone as AT&T. Everyone else uses the other kind of phone. So now, AT&T customers can't just switch to T-Mobile while keeping their phone. They'll have to switch to another provider
and buy another phone.
Personally, Virgin Mobile is looking better and better.
