The FCC has approved the use of the unused airwaves between broadcast TV channels, otherwise known as "<A href="http://googlepublicpolicy.blogspot.com/search/label/White%20Spaces">white spaces</A>" for public wireless broadband service. </DIV></blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.webpronews.com/topnews/2008/11/05/white-spaces-officially-cleared-for-wireless-broadband">A <A href="http://googlepublicpolicy.blogspot.com/2008/11/vote-for-broadband-in-white-spaces.html">post from Google Co-founder Larry Page</A> on the Google Public Policy Blog says:</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.webpronews.com/topnews/2008/11/05/white-spaces-officially-cleared-for-wireless-broadband">The FCC has been looking at this issue carefully for the last six years. Google has worked hard on this matter <A href="http://www.wirelessinnovationalliance.org/?gclid=CIO2uKLD25YCFQYcHgodIx7K2g">with other tech companies and public interest groups</A> because we think that this spectrum will help put better and faster Internet connections in the hands of the public.</blockquote><div style="height: 2px; font-size: 2px; background: #dcdcdc; border-bottom: solid 1px #f5f5f5; margin: 2px 4px;"></div><blockquote style="text-align: left; padding: 0px 8px; margin: 4px 0px 8px 0px; background: transparent; border: none;" cite="http://www.webpronews.com/topnews/2008/11/05/white-spaces-officially-cleared-for-wireless-broadband">We will soon have "<A href="http://googlepublicpolicy.blogspot.com/2008/05/larry-page-talks-about-googles-vision.html">Wi-Fi on steroids</A>," since these spectrum signals have much longer range than today's Wi-Fi technology and broadband access can be spread using fewer base stations resulting in better coverage at lower cost.</blockquote></div><div style="margin: 0px 6px 6px 4px;"><table style="font-size: 11px;border-spacing: 0px;padding: 0px;" cellpadding="0" cellspacing="0" width="100%"><tr><td style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;"> </td><td align="right" style="background:transparent;border-width:0px;padding:0px;width:107px" width="107"><a href="http://clipmarks.com/share/2F039D68-99DE-4BB8-842D-0C939E97C333/blog/" title="blog or email this clip"><img src="http://content7.clipmarks.com/images/c2b-foot.png" border="0" alt="blog it" width="107" height="17" style="border-width:0px;padding:0px;margin:0px;" /></a></td></tr></table></div></div>
