T-Mobile's Carrier Callout Takes Aim at AT&T and Verizon; Offers
$1,000 to Customers Facing Price Hikes + Future Hijinks
What's the news: AT&T and Verizon are once again increasing costs for
longtime customers who thought their phone bills were the last thing
they had to worry about in a world where prices are rising from the
gas pumps to the grocery store. Not cool, bro.
Why it matters: The Carriers are fighting inflation by going straight
for their customers' pockets. It doesn't have to be this way. T-Mobile
is standing by its commitment to customers with Price Lock, which
ensures T-Mobile won't raise the price of its existing wireless rate
plans even as costs for everything else increase.

Subject: IBM Has to Pay BMC $1.6 Billion for Poaching AT&T Account
By Laurel Brubaker Calkins and Francesca Maglione
International Business Machines Corp. must pay $1.6 billion to BMC
Software Inc. for swapping in its own software while servicing their
mutual client, a federal judge ruled.
US District Judge Gray Miller in Houston on Monday rejected IBM's
claim that it acquired the mainframe software account of one of BMC's
core customers, AT&T Corp., fair and square. Miller awarded damages
based on his earlier determination that IBM's role in AT&T's decision
to dump BMC "smacked of intentional wrongdoing." His ruling came after
a seven-day non-jury trial in March.
