Best of 2009: Rumors we’d like to see come true
In 2009, everyone but the companies in question (okay, mainly Google and Apple) were talking about:
- Google buys Sprint.
- Cisco and/or Google acquiring everybody – both are back on acquisition trail, they say
More after the break, including our readers’ responses…
- The merger of prepaid providers Leap Wireless and MetroPCS.
- Google Phone – The Nexus One is – for all intents and purposes – official, but we won’t believe it until we hear it straight from the horse’s mouth.
- Apple actually announces the Apple Tablet, instead of everyone else.
- A Verizon Wireless iPhone (so we can see if Verizon’s network is as good as it claims it is)
