Exactly my point, even if they can cobble together roughly enough overall capacity to keep things going, it's not a balanced grid where all masts are equal. When I was with O2 most masts appeared to have minimal backhaul capacity and as I find everyday whilst travelling, whereas some three masts happily bang out 20+mbps and have enough capacity for more users Many other masts around do not and are struggling with sub 1 mbps speed and data issues already. As things stand right now, it's going to be a painful merger on the data front, though good for voice if your a three user.
