Embarq sale

Can anyone run down the buy/sell history of this company from the time it was "started" till now?

I used to know what it was.....

Matt,

Your article says it all....Sprint spun them off...HQ is at 5454 W. 110 St.

Sprint was started as a LD spin off then took over it's parent in name only....United Tel. HQ located at Westwood...Shawnee Mission Parkway and Rainbow.

Sprint lost it's ....with the 3G thing (fancy VoIP)and the wireless thing.

Another lost company just like GTE....

Oh.

I was thinking something like it started as United, bought by GTE, GTE became Sprint.... etc.

For some reason I thought there was more of a history there.

I guess I"m just getting old. The one nice thing about that is I can no longer remember the things I've forgotten. Or, more simply put, I've reached the point in my life where I've forgotten more than I know.

I posted more stories and the official press release in the news section here.

Since we have another post in Telecom News on this very subject I'm going to lock this one. News is where it belongs. Just follow GnGRacin's link.
