AT&T did buy that region. The little glitch there was Alltel didn't have any towers there - all the service came from shared tower agreements (which wont work on AT&T phones).

They could resolve it by simply putting in some towers (and retaining a lot of customers in the process) but it doesn't sound like they're doing that anytime soon.
