I can't think of a single place where T-Mobile has better coverage than AT&T. As an amalgamation of almost all the former baby bells, AT&T has (geographically speaking) the best coverage of all the providers. Presuming your AT&T phone is a GSM one, you would be able to roam to a T-Mobile tower if AT&T and T-Mobile just had a roaming agreement. This wouldn't require a takeover and wouldn't affect competition in the market the way this buyout undoubtedly will.
- JoshTriplett 16y agoAs you pointed out, AT&T has better coverage than T-Mobile pretty much everywhere; a roaming agreement wouldn't help most AT&T customers, with the exception of those using phones that only do 3G on T-Mobile's frequencies rather than AT&T's. So, it seems unlikely that AT&T would sign a roaming agreement with T-Mobile that would primarily benefit T-Mobile's customers but not AT&T's.
