  1. Comment - Google proposes Android as a 'white spaces' platform

    No, it's like saying short-term bursts inside the cell phone spectrum will degrade cell phone service (availability, quality, dropouts etc.). Indeed that's Google's problem: wired people drooling like fools over the TV spectrum.

    Google's effort violates the KISS Principle (Keep It Simple, Stupid) and Murphy's Law (If something can go wrong, it will). It is presumptuous of the FCC and Google to think that they can foresee all the issues that will come up when Android is widely deployed. The FCC should grant at MOST a provisional license for 1 year, renewable annually but subject to cancellation in the first 5 years. If the license is canceled, say due to interference with TV, Google and its partners should eat the losses.
