It looks increasingly like the approval of LightSquared's spectrum was done because of political favoritism in the White House. Jed Babbin, a former undersecretary of defense, said tonight on NRANews that this "bunch in the White House is the most corrupt" we've seen in a long time.
And LightSquared continues to insist that the problem of interference can be fixed by simply retrofitting GPS units with a little gizmo. Trouble is, the gizmo doesn't exist. 2nd trouble is, think of how many models of GPS units are owned by the general driving public, the military, the general aviation community, the boating community, back country hikers, etc. 3rd trouble is, LightSquared assumes users would buy these gizmos themselves - NOT!
Here I sit at my desk, glance at a Google Gadget, and what do I see listed along with the Financial News. My old friend, RedBear. Way go, Jay.
ReplyDeleteReally? Wow. Thanks for the comment you posted. I’ve been writing these little blog notes for a few months, but not even my sisters or wife add comments. It has been more like a secret diary than a blog. What Gadget are you using that showed it?
