Well, well, it looks like AT&T wasn't the only one looking to
acquire a competitor in the wireless business last year. According to
CNBC's David Faber, the Now Network was knee-deep in negotiations to acquire MetroPCS for $8 billion dollars before its board nixed the deal.

We're still digging for details, so stay tuned for more as we have it.
