“I would expect it shortly as we begin to get to a point where we start to deploy some new spectrum as we close the EchoStar transaction, you'll see the first instantiation of that as we move forward”

In context

“ow you look at further partnerships, or acquisitions to maximize the TAM and your return on capital? And then just secondly, if I could, on the account growth sequentially in consumer and mobility. Can you share what's working for you and how you're balancing growth in accounts ARPA relative to what you were just describing in convergence, versus kind of the core mobility services that you offer? John Stankey: Michael, so when I think about open and what we're driving toward the thrust, I would articulate in that regard are one, you know what we're doing in our wireless network. And the purpose of us opening aspects of our wireless network is to manage supply chain costs and performance of equipment and the architecture over time. And I think we're leading the industry in that regard, and I would expect it shortly as we begin to get to a point where we start to deploy some new spectrum as we close the EchoStar transaction, you'll see the first instantiation of that as we move forward and work our process of deploying that spectrum, and how we build our network and what we're able to gain [indiscernible] associated with that. And so that's one aspect of it. The second aspect is the complete reengineering of the core of the network that we're doing that I think sometimes is overlooked a little bit. As I've shared with you before, we have multiple routing infrastructures that support different product lines in this business or different segments. What we use for routing infrastructure and consumer broadband fixed services is different than what we do, for example, for our business enterprise services, which is different than how we ship around our wireless packets and services, and we've been investing very aggressively to re-architect that network, flatten it, integrate”
