Snaimon do you think that Blau and Simyo will get together soon? And what about Debitel? Another identical offer... they don't have much sense!

Perhaps Aldi/E+ have corrected the "error," -- again our German friends will have to confirm, but ORIGINALLY, since Aldi is E+, all E+ network internal calls, not just to Aldi users, and SMS, were billed at the reduced rate of 5 cents. While that does not help you with your O2 friends, it is something for E+.
As Triband81 or someone else has stated, E+ seems to have plenty of capacity. They seem to welcome serious firms wishing to use their infrastructure even if the offers are very similar. Unless there is some sweetener for those MVNO execs, I can see no reason why any of the competitor firms would join forces despite the similar terms of their offers. Each seems to think they can make a separate successful business with their own system under their own brand. That of course remains to be seen. I think their are slight nuances in the offers -- debitel available in stores versus others internet only.
If Aldi can make a profit with 5 cents network internal, then there is still plenty of profit for Simyo and the others.
