said by gaforces :I hope the FCC and Congress learned that they shouldn't allow one company to control the wireless spectrum, so that we can have competitive pricing and services. Next auction they should deny previous winners from bidding. agreed

| reply to gaforces So next auction AT&T will win the majority of the licenses? How does that benefit anyone.
Problem is because we have 2 competing technologies GSM\CDMA we see no direct competition. Plus since about 90% of the potential market is already locked up getting another company to step in is tantamount to telling them to go bankrupt trying.
You would have to offer a very lucrative offer to get any customers plus the network build out required would cost billions just to cover the top 20 markets. |

| reply to Vertickle The claim is that google failed him.
Google is a very large commercial enterprise. I don't remember them promising anyone anything about this. Their "open access" ramblings were to their potential benefit, nobody else's. -- Toolmaster of La Grange. |
