Re: Verizon has to win it

Not me... I'd rather see a new, powerful competitor enter the market with fresh ideas and a will to fight.

Seeding this spectrum to the big boys will give us more of the same we have now: Consolidation, higher prices, Slow access, Caps, 2 year contracts, etc etc

Even if that powerful new competitor has NEVER rolled out a wireless network before, not even a local one ??

I doubt Google would try on their own - they would team with someone else, possibly with an existing provider entity you might consider 'evil'.

What would a fresh idea for running a telecom look like? I don't think Google has one.

Service? Features? Value?

The more competition, the more options, the better.

Hardly fresh ideas.

What new features? I mean, there are only so many things a phone can do.

I think Google needs to stay out of the phone biz. Stick with what you know.
