T-Mobile MDA IV

Deutsche Telecom says no deal, and apparently this time they mean it: despite the recent resurgence of rumors about a possible sale, they’ve decided to hold on to T-Mobile USA, at least for the time being. We already went through all this once before — back in July the company went to great lengths to squash any and all speculation that they might be putting the 4th largest wireless carrier on the block — but then DT CEO Kai-Uwe Ricke blew it when he went out of his way to state that as far as T-Mobile USA was concerned he was “keeping all options open.” Well, it looks like DT is taking at least one option off the table now, with Ricke saying the other day that there is “no reason for a sale” and that going forward they’re going to focus on building out T-Mob USA’s 3G network.
