ADT buys Broadview (Brinks)

It now looks like ADT is going to be buying Broadview during thesecond quarter of 2011 which will give them a combined market share of35% of the residential US market for alarm systems. See the followinglink. to me, in the long run, this is probably good news for smaller,established companies to fit in the market where ADT and their ilk arenot present, or not very good..ie: full systems, quality after salesservice, lower prices and less expensive monitoring rates. On theother hand, it's probably also going to increase the "free system"nonsense, as well as the presence of more shady selling "door todoor", as the new mega-monster company tries to keep it's revenuegrowth increasing exponentially.....We live in interesting times....
