There is no evidence that the 5.4Ghz spectrum issue is resolved, but it sure
was convenient for them to through it out there as hope, to reduce the
repercusions of the proposed TAXes.

Interesting how the 5 Ghz spectrum gets resolved right after they come up
with the taxing idea. And one needs to wonder who came up with the great
idea of taxing unlicensed spectrum. It surely wasn't George hyimself.....

Well, it does not surprise me that the government has decided to tax the
unlicensed spectrum. Today the Bush administration announced a plan to tax
Wi-Fi and other unlicensed spectrum. It is not clear how they will do it
yet
but the process is in motion. That's the bad news, the good news is they
reached agreement on the 5.4 GHz spectrum and that should become available
once equipment gets certified. Check the RCR news site for the full
stories.
Oh well, I suspected that it would not last forever the truly free use of
the spectrum.
