Define "change". E.g. I liked very much when mobile operators in my country changed debiting to 1/1 seconds .

Why - since you have just said that prices may increase? Because cross-border roaming connections will become on-net connections?
As to language:

FACT 1: options are NOT YET IMPLEMENTED.
FACT 2. how will YOU feel if a pan-EU carrier DOES NOT OFFER Polish as an option?

As to change:

FACT 1: most people RESIST changes BY NATURE - who LIKES the untested, unknown?

As to price changes - you are correct. One can only speculate as to which way they would fall.

FURTHERMORE, I am not sure the North American market is a good example of what will happen after a consolidation. Most of US was and is on POST-PAY. I believe, but may be wrong, that most of EU is on PRE-PAY.

I would tend to agree with Andy..... the citizens' interests are not supreme here but rather the existing national regulators and companies. US customers were never asked if they wanted their Voicestream service to transfer to T-MO. Of course, if they did not like the deal T-MO gave them, they bailded out.

Seems to me the chances of a pan-EU solution are very slim at this time.

As noted, I may be wrong in every point. But you EU folks might want to debate it.
