T-Mobile USA has called off its year-long exclusive search deal with Yahoo and has replaced it with Google.

I wouldn't be surprised if Google ends up buying T-Mobile. They are pushing hard to provide free high speed across the nation, out of their pockets by the way, so whatever's lacking in coverage with their cell network can be compensated for.
