I wish they would have made a commercial with the Verizon guy in the commercial getting mad and making some comment about buying out Chads company.

But after the merger deal hit the news, Alltel quit showing the Verizon guys shirt, he was always in the background with his shirt not showing Verizon. Oh well I thought that would have been funny to see...

Hmm, so are Alltel calls now considered "IN" calls, or not until rebranding?

And I agree, the VZW guy mad about having to buy Chad's company would have been halarious!!

What would be cool is if they do a commercial showing the other three talking and wondering where VZW is at. Next scene they look up and see the "network" crew standing behind Chad. lol

I can see the conversation now:

at&t "Where's Chad at now?"
Sprint "I don't know. I haven't seen him since June '09....."
VZW "Chad went to Tahiti for retirement. MyCircle is no more. "

lol

Don't know if anyone has seen this or cares to read it but it is the transition info from the Alltel website.
