I recognized the Alltel sale as an equivalent to the Cingular/AT&T deal,
but y'all couldn't see it.
This article may convince a few of u to see CRU might have insight:

AT&T's success in court has Alltel thinking bigger
Company looking to get clear definition on restrictions

CRU excerpt:
Alltel's restrictions are likewise vaguely referenced in its contract with Penske,
said Samira Zebian, Alltel's director of sponsorship marketing.
"Could this allow us to leverage the racetrack and other platforms that have
been off limits to us?" Zebian asked. "What has been conjecture in the past
now must be formalized. We've always been very respectful of Nextel's rights,
but we need a better understanding of how far-reaching those rights are.
"What the suit brings to light is that a league deal shouldn't impact our
category so negatively that we can't put our product in front of the fans the
way every other team sponsor can."

Your original post wasn't clear, Cru, on why you were associating AT &
T with Alltel, that's all. We ALWAYS believe you. ;-)
