if Apple and Google teamed up to bid on the spectrum? That's pretty much the only way either one of them stand a chance at getting it.

GOOG has a 210 billion market cap and AT&T has a 227 billion cap. GOOG has just as much money to throw away in the auction as any of the incumbents.
This is an auction, lobbyist's can't get their fingers in this one. If Google wants it, they simply have to be willing to spend more money than AT&T or Verizon.
And PLEASE don't let Apple get a hold of it, look at the closed nature of every product they release.

They've been pretty friendly with Google lately too. |

Maybe they will time the ceremony to coincide with the auction.
