    Lightsquared's LTE network doomed

    in Network, Network Vision/LTE Deployment

    Posted

    What is terrible about this is that GPS systems are still not that accurate and have problems in cites, which is where they are needed most.

    I think that the FCC should allow LS2 to swap their frequency at the next spectrum sale. There shouldn't have been a problem with the other frequencies, but if they can sell the spectrum to someone that will use it as intended for satellite transmission, they might still have a chance to become a viable company.

     

    I don't think that the FCC is interested in swapping spectrum. They are all for bringing internet to the people, but they aren't going to give up billions of dollars of spectrum to a company that tried to convert cheap spectrum into premium spectrum. No, it's not lightsquared's fault that GPS is spilling over into their spectrum, or that using their spectrum would cripple the GPS devices, but they bought satellite spectrum and tried to convert it to terrestrial spectrum. It was a good idea, but in the end it didn't work out.

    GSlll rumored specs

    in Samsung

    I think I'm giving up on GSIII rumors at this point.. its almost gotten to point of iPhone rumors. I'm just gonna close my eyes and wait for it to hit.

     

    I agree. It has gotten way out of hand. The GSII was hugely successful, now Samsung has to step it up again or the hype machine will run them over. I think expectations are so high, they need a masterpiece or people will be disappointed. On the other hand, all the hype is just free advertising.

    Why buy a Nexus again?

    I'm sure you are counting on the ability to be one of the first folks to upgrade that GNex to Jelly Bean. I know I would be. It's one of the top reasons of buying a Nexus product.

    absolutely, that is a big reason I chose gnex. Developer support and non bloated AOSP are the other reasons.
