Virgin to start US domestic airline?

Word on the street is that Virgin is looking to aquire/start a US domestic airline, in order to fight OneWorld.

This should be real fun! How will they get 'round the 25% ownership rule? Perhaps Mr Branson will ask his old friend Sir Freddie Laker to help? Or perhaps they will partner an existing US carrier and call they alliance WorldOne?
