Google may bid for 700 MHz wireless spectrum in January 08

WSJ have reported that Google are set to apply to bid for the 700MHz spectrum in the January Federal Communications Commission. There have been rumours that Google were interested in the wireless spectrum and this latest report confirms them.

Apparently, Google are set to bid low on purpose so they won’t actually win the bid, but will place pressure on the FCC. Google obviously aren’t silly. They know if they build their own mobile network they’ll run into trouble with their current partners AT&T, Sprint Nextel and T-Mobile.
