    Re: Apple To Own Wireless 700Mhz Network

    The rf spectrum is part of our infrastructure. It should not be taxed by
    selling it to the highest bidder. The current process ensures that any use
    will be expensive enough to repay the auction price.

    Infrastructure needs to be subsidized.

    You are forgetting that Apple and Google are partners in many areas,
    Eric even sits on Apple's Board of Directors so what Steve says, Eric
    does.

    Google simply doesn't have any experience in hardware, nor any sales
    experience to go it alone, and while an mutual Apple/Google bid is
    possible. Apple can easily outbid Google if needed.

    As Todd mentioned the deadline for submitting bids is coming up soon.

    Apple would probably use a shell company to protect the use until the
    iPhone using this band is ready.

    MacWorld is coming up very soon, only 58 days away! So we should know
    something by that morning. (the Keynote is on the 15th)

    talk about clueless Kevin, you win the award for the above comment.

    what you pulled up was just a mirror of usenet in a phpBB format.

    the post didn't originate with me, you were just too clueless to
    understand that.

    the mildly smarter DTC found the correct info, just as I had said.

    And there lies the problem, newbie- most of us would rather post something
    factual, as opposed to "interesting". The fact that you posted it all
    simply shows that you know nothing about the subject.

    Yes, you "don't care" about the truth - that has been proven repeatedly.

    Now... if you'd admit to trolling & sock puppets primarily to be an asshole,
    we'd actually be getting somewhere.

    Why are YOU so "obsessed" with trolling groups with fanboy crap?
    Why are YOU post complete crap where it doesn't belong.
    Why do YOU try so hard to be a complete ass?

    Answer those - and you will have answered your question.
