I say let them bid like everyone else. If the financial resources of all those companies can not outbid everyone else for that space, then they probably do not need it.]]>Aug 16th 2007 8:04PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/fcc-chairman-looking-to-kill-free-internet-plan/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/fcc-chairman-looking-to-kill-free-internet-plan/

With its *stated purpose* or providing free internet, MZ2 must have some other more subtle means of generating revenue (possibly encroaching on YOUR privacy when you use the free internet). You think VC firms (like Kleiner Perkins) could answer to their investors if they were to invest dollars in true social entrepreneurship ventures? http://www.m2znetworks.com/about-company/investors/

"M2Z" would
correct this injustice.

Ever wonder how someone can be in office for 10 yrs., make $75,000 per yr. & leave office a Millionaire.?? Mr. Martin is going to make sure he gets his.. Prove me wrong, there's no logical reason for him to take such a stance so early in against "M2Z", other than he wasn't offered a vacation home in Montana.]]>Aug 16th 2007 11:57PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/fcc-chairman-looking-to-kill-free-internet-plan/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/fcc-chairman-looking-to-kill-free-internet-plan/Aug 17th 2007 9:37AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/fcc-chairman-looking-to-kill-free-internet-plan/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/fcc-chairman-looking-to-kill-free-internet-plan/Aug 17th 2007 1:02AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/fcc-chairman-looking-to-kill-free-internet-plan/http://www.engadget.com/2007/08/16/fcc-chairman-looking-to-kill-free-internet-plan/http://www.m2znetworks.com/.

The free access would be filtered (child-safe) and advertisement laden. However, it doesn't say how it was filtered. It also doesn't say what is considered indecent.
So if they determine that AdultSwim.com is indecent, I have to pay them to view it?

Has no interest in the 700mhz spectrum. This has nothing to do with that soap opera.


They want 20mhz from the 2ghz band. 2155-2175 MHz
