eldavojohn writes "Now that Verizon beat Google in the block "C" spectrum auction, what are they going to do with it? Well, today they revealed their plans for world domination — speed up wireless. It may come as no surprise to those of you who follow the terms that they were held to but they will also make this available for other manufacturer's devices. AT&T plans to do the same with their auction winnings, "AT&T was second to Verizon, winning $6 billion in spectrum licenses, which it also plans to use for high-speed Internet service. But its executives said they didn't bid for the portion subject to the open-access rules. The parts it did land cost AT&T nearly three times as much per unit of spectrum than the portion Verizon bought.""
