Today officially begins the FCC auction of the 700MHz spectrum. All eyes are on the big fish in this pond wondering how this auction will play out. There are fears Wall Street’s tanking may tarnish this auction, but I think not. The potential for the third tube of connectivity is seen by many as a new path forward bursting with new revenue opportunities.
You know I am excited. I’ve had this day circled on my calendar and I am routing for Google. I figure they’ll push the bidding to the minimum and stop there so as to enact the open rule they helped get written into the contract. Hopefully from there, someone with, you know, a network will pick it up and run with it. Or the telecos could sit back and watch Google hold onto something it may not be able to do anything with… Ah the drama over the FCC.
More as it develops.
