Post merger effeciencies should exist, in time single billing / distribution etc. Marketing wise I think it will be a great benefit. I'm sure post merger there will be a lot of nationwide advertising for cable. If CR3 and the red button, the normally high quality of NTLs phone lines and the higher and more widely dispersed BB oportunities exist, it could be that cable will finally find its feet in the UK and fight back.
