Telecom Intelligence: Week of February 9, 2026 This was the week the American wireless market showed two very different visions of its future on the same day. On February 11, T-Mobile used a combined earnings call and Capital Markets Day in New York to raise its multi-year targets, posting $71.3 billion in full-year service revenue and setting a goal of 18 to 19 million broadband customers by 2030 across fixed wireless and its growing fiber joint ventures. Hours later, US Mobile, one of the most inventive MVNOs in the country, launched Multi-Network functionality that lets a customer run two national networks at once on a single plan through dual eSIM. One company is spending tens of billions to own infrastructure, the other is treating that infrastructure as an interchangeable ingredient. Rounding out the week, Iridium reported full-year 2025 results on February 12, with $871.7 million in revenue and growing net income, a reminder that the original satellite operators are quietly profitable while the direct-to-cell newcomers burn capital.
