AT&T Wireless
AT&T Mobility LLC (usually branded at&t)[2] is the wholly owned wireless subsidiary of AT&T Inc. AT&T Mobility is the second largest mobile phone company, in terms of number of subscribers, under Verizon Wireless. AT&T Mobility has approximately 77 million subscribers as of the fourth quarter 2008.
Formerly a joint venture between SBC Communications and BellSouth, Cingular Wireless soon acquired the old AT&T Wireless; SBC later acquired the original AT&T and re-branded as “the new AT&T”. Cingular became wholly-owned by the new AT&T in December 2006 as a result of AT&T’s acquisition of BellSouth.
