how long before the big 2 clamp down on MVNOs?

because the MVNOs are getting large chunks of their business right now(prepaid carriers offer much better deals right now). I just wonder how long it will be before T and V start to charge them so much money that they cannot offer the plans they do, and they start to either raise prices or file anti-trust lawsuits to break up the baby bells(really, ma and pa bell) again. Some cable and teleco incumbents need to be slapped too.

I've seen it happen already, with Red Pocket Mobile. They had a really great plan for $59/mo that was unlimited voice/txt/mms and 2GB of data. They've since rolled that back to $55/mo unlimited voice/txt/mms and 1GB of data.

T-mobile still has really great pre-paid options, but I won't go back to them, until they refarm their 3G in Nashville to the 1900 band. Unlimited EDGE data is almost as bad as Sprint 3G.
