And not to be a grammar nazi or anything, but I believe the term is spelled "for naught". ;)]]>Nov 30th 2007 1:35AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/30/wsj-google-to-join-700mhz-auction-party-today/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/30/wsj-google-to-join-700mhz-auction-party-today/

When referencing the actions of the company, you're referencing the actions of the people who make up the company. Therefor, the correct term to be using is "they", and not "it". The "company" itself is a name and a business license.

Neither the name, nor the license are capable of doing anything, let alone, boast of their greatness to the public.

lol@you, nerd.

google's android + 700mhz ftw!]]>Dec 1st 2007 4:27AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/30/wsj-google-to-join-700mhz-auction-party-today/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/30/wsj-google-to-join-700mhz-auction-party-today/
Google is such a unique and creative company. If they win this auction, then they are sure to release a really innovative service and/or shake up the wireless industry as we know it!

The possibilities are exciting!]]>Nov 30th 2007 2:10AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/30/wsj-google-to-join-700mhz-auction-party-today/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/30/wsj-google-to-join-700mhz-auction-party-today/Nov 30th 2007 2:17AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/30/wsj-google-to-join-700mhz-auction-party-today/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/30/wsj-google-to-join-700mhz-auction-party-today/

Anyways - I hope that whoever wins doesn't turn out to be dumping crap hardware on us with crap contracts and crap service.

For some reason Google has this magical aura effect going on with whatever they do, but like another post has said before about the full sentence containing Google's Motto "Make tons of money, 'Don't be evil' doing it" :]]]>Nov 30th 2007 2:30AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/30/wsj-google-to-join-700mhz-auction-party-today/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/30/wsj-google-to-join-700mhz-auction-party-today/Nov 30th 2007 2:40AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2007/11/30/wsj-google-to-join-700mhz-auction-party-today/http://www.engadget.com/2007/11/30/wsj-google-to-join-700mhz-auction-party-today/
If the spectrum is handed to a traditional phone company:

+) The US govt. gets (for example) $10 billion .. on the surface, this translates to less taxes And therefore savings for tax payers

-) In reality, due to monopolistic practice, the phone company is able to charge very high fees to cell phone users (that is, most taxpayers)

Therefore it is better that spectrum be given out free or at lower cost to whoever offers the most open policy.
