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

but how this country is now i doubt it. its all about how much green you have and not about taking care of people

Just keep draining their cash with more and more auctions till they get the picture ...
It's not like theres a shortage of spectrum.

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.

I agree. Companies with deep pockets can 'sit' on the spectrum for a while, unless they're pressed to deploy.

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.
