Free, nationwide WiFi. Drooling yet, or do I need to say it again? Free, nationwide WiFi from Google. As television will cease analog transmission. Google’s plan? “Wi-Fi on steroids.” (Without the ‘roid rage, I’m guessing.)
Late Friday, Google wireless spectrum auction sold license to frequencies formerly occupied by UHF transmissions (ultra high frequency; no, it’s not just a Weird Al film) television channels 52-69. The ultra high and very high frequencies used by television channels 2 through 51 will no longer be used after February 17, 2009. Google planned to deliver sometime in Q4 2009.
If Google succeeds in convincing the FCC to sign on, however, there will be some major concerns with free Google WiFi, and rightfully so. Comments
