WHAT THE FEDERAL COMMUNICATIONS COMMISSION (FCC) IS SAYING

"I was pleased to learn of the formation of LightSquared today. This new 
nationwide 4G wireless broadband network represents more than $7 billion 
of new investment, with the potential to create more than 100,000 new 
private-sector jobs within five years. Today’s announcement shows that 
FCC policies are helping grow the U.S. economy by catalyzing investment 
and job creation."

Julius Genachowski, Chairman, FCC
