700 MHz spectrum by FCC must mean a good deal to Google in a way that it has decided to bid at least $4.6bn on it for the FCC’s forthcoming auction.

• The wireless spectrum allowing consumers to download and use any software applications.

• It also essentially means that they can use any content they want.

• The wireless spectrum must allow handhelds to be used with any carrier.

• The spectrum enabling resellers to acquire wireless services at wholesale costs; leading to the interconnection at any point on the 700 megahertz band.
