Okay I know I am only <U>five</U> years late hearing this news but I wonder if anyone has a view or opinion or even some actual info as to why O2 sold off a mobile network, albeit one that was not for public use? More interestingly what did Telefonica then do with the £1.9b they made from the sale? Buy back shares? Invest it in infrastructure?</P> Wed, 31 Oct 2012 11:31:48 GMT https://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Off-Topic/O2-Airwave-sold-off-in-2007/m-p/337062#M2512 Anonymous 2012-10-31T11:31:48Z https://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Off-Topic/O2-Airwave-sold-off-in-2007/m-p/337414#M2513 <P>Well they reckon they spend £1.5 million a day on the network, so I guess that will have helped.</P> Wed, 31 Oct 2012 17:02:56 GMT https://community.o2.co.uk/t5/Off-Topic/O2-Airwave-sold-off-in-2007/m-p/337414#M2513 perksie 2012-10-31T17:02:56Z
