| From Big Red . . . Jeffrey Nelson here at Verizon Wireless. Just want to note:
1) Our open development program is on track, capturing the imagination of developers who we expect will bring new devices and applications to the marketplace later this year. Any company committed to openness encourages this kind of innovation and competition.
2) It's really no surprise that despite not winning spectrum, Google continues to try to change the rules and further their own business interests through the regulatory process. We'll likely file at the Federal Communications Commission within the next several days on this matter.
3) Verizon Wireless - and all the other participants in the recent 700 MHz spectrum auction - understood the FCC's rules for using that spectrum in advance of the auction. Of course we'll abide by those rules. As we work to put the spectrum we won to good use, if Google or anybody else has evidence that we aren't playing by the rules, there are legitimate and expedited ways to address that.
Thanks for the opportunity to comment. If you want to ping me directly, I'm on Jeffrey.Nelson@VerizonWireless.com |
