margin-top: 6pt">     In connection with our cost savings initiatives, during the first quarter of 2011, we terminated certain tower leases, or when early termination was not available under the terms of the lease, we advised our landlords of our intention not to renew. In connection with these lease termination initiatives, we recognized a Cease-to-use tower lease liability of $34.7 million in Other current liabilities, based on the remaining lease rentals for leases subject to termination actions reduced by estimated sublease rentals that could be reasonably obtained. Net of previously recorded deferred rent liabilities associated with these leases and including cancellation fees, Cost of goods and services and network costs reflect a charge of $1.5 million during the three months ended March 31, 2011 for the lease termination activities. We expect to achieve cost savings resulting from these lease termination initiatives through a reduction in future lease obligations. See Note 4, Property, Plant and Equipment for information regarding the related Loss from abandonment and impairment of network and other assets charge. </div> </div>  <!-- Begin Block Tagged NotefalsefalsefalsefalsefalseOtherus-types:textBlockItemTypestringThis element may be used as a single block of text to encapsulate the entire disclosure for other liabilities including data and tables.Reference 1: http://www.xbrl.org/2003/role/presentationRef -Publisher SEC -Name Regulation S-X (SX) -Number 210 -Section 02 -Paragraph 20, 24 -Article 5 falsefalseOther Liabilities12Other LiabilitiesUnKnownUnKnownUnKnownUnKnownfalsetrue
