Nextel was too cheap to buy real spectrum, so they bought a bunch of 8000 MHz two way radio channels and messed up a bunch of cop and fire systems. FCC swapped some 800 MHz channels for 2 GHz space, if they would pay incumbent users to clear it. Something similar happened with PCS when it was new.]]>Jul 22nd 2010 8:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/Jul 22nd 2010 8:19PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/Jul 22nd 2010 8:23PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/
This latest PR about "clearing spectrum for broadband" is, to my knowledge, a bit of a red herring...it makes them look good to us gadget guys who want more spectrum, but in reality they were doing it long before any "National Broadband" initiative existed. It was designed to fix a problem.]]>Jul 22nd 2010 9:00PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/Jul 23rd 2010 12:26AMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/Jul 22nd 2010 8:01PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/Jul 22nd 2010 8:06PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/Jul 22nd 2010 8:08PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/]]>Jul 22nd 2010 8:12PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/Jul 22nd 2010 8:39PMhttp://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/http://www.engadget.com/2010/07/22/sprint-clears-35mhz-of-spectrum-for-future-use-wonders-if-its/This is one article the articles that reported Sprint comments on data tier plans. http://news.cnet.com/8301-30686_3-20007314-266.html
