Here is an interesting take on Google’s reported interest in the old 700mhz cell phone spectrum. I knew there was a reason to hang on to my old Motorola brick phone.

If the FCC agrees to the terms outlined … Google will definitely win the auction. Once its wins, its executives will soon realize (as if they haven’t already) that this spectrum can go through walls and reach just about anywhere. Even better, it’ll create a speedy broadband connection.

Within no time, Google will announce that wireless will be made available to the public through its system. After all, it did it in San Francisco, why won’t it do it all over the country? In effect, Google would run a “third broadband pipe.”
