FCC Will Require New Spectrum Winners To Open Network
This isn't about Cell Phones
This upcoming auction won't be about cell phones, at all. The types of companies bidding range from private equity to large MNCs. Again, not cellular providers.
Look for Wi-Max or whatever follows Wi-Max to be deployed on this network. 700 Mhz has great rural penetration because it doesn't require as many signal repeaters (I'm sure all you cell phone junkies already know this).
But that's just my theory. Truth is, will the amount of power and capability to access people that this spectrum will provide, it really could be anything. Nationwide ultra high speed wireless internet access is just one possibility.

Right but who else other than the big Telecom's are going to spend the money that is required to buy this at auction?
I'd see it being mainly used for WiMax.
