Burlington, Vermont - December 22, 2008
It's official-- AT&T sealed the deal Monday and will acquire Unicel.
It means dozens of new jobs in Vermont and that the heavily-hyped iPhone will soon be here in Vermont.
The Apple iPhone is available only from AT&T and until now, Vermont did not have that service.
The company cleared the final regulatory hurdle just last week and Monday announced it will add nearly 75 new jobs.
AT&T officials say their products and services will be available at ten former Unicel locations in mid-January. They will honor current contracts for up to a year.
