Gary Asks: If you got the licenses to 'SUPPLEMENT the Autobahn spectrum', how much better performance does that mean in those cities which are supplemented?

Well, this is a good question. and I do not want to appear to be dodging it, but, I am not exactly sure. The AB network architecture was well along when the spectrum was purchased. So the system design of the AB network should meet the data rates we are aiming for without WCS.

Incorporation of the WCS spectrum into the AB system design is moving along, ( the AB network design is further along since WCS came along later) but it is not at the point where I would feel comfortable saying that we will see a XX kbps increase in the cities where we are using the WCS spectrum.

Sorry for the vagueness, but I just do not know yet!
