More on AT&T
Description from Wikipedia:
AT&T Inc. (NYSE: T) is the largest US provider of both local and long distance telephone services, and DSL Internet access. AT&T is the second largest provider of wireless service in the United States, with over 77 million wireless customers, and more than 150 million total customers. AT&T, Inc. was formed in 2005, when "Baby Bell" SBC Communications Inc. purchased former "Ma Bell" AT&T Corporation The newly merged company took on the iconic AT&T moniker and T stock-trading symbol (for "telephone").
The current AT&T includes eleven of the original Bell Operating Companies, and the original long distance division. While it reconstitutes much of the former Bell System, AT&T Inc. lacks the vertical integration of the historic AT&T Corp., which prompted United States v. AT&T, the antitrust suit that led to the breakup in 1984.
The company was honored at the 2008 Technology & Engineering Emmy Awards for development of coaxial cable technology as well as for staying true to its promise of "connecting people."
