Steven..

A few more thoughts.. Perhaps what's going on is a confluence of NXTL and FCC interests. AS has been suggested, the FCC now looks "real bad", the 7 bil that they once raised slipping through their fingers. If only they could reset the rules... NXTL OTOH surely DOES NOT want to see Nextwave field a brand spanking new 3G network, whatever the stripe. By demonstrating their willingness to pay more than Nextwave they might help the FCC argue for a renegociation of the rules. If NXTL ultimately has to share the spectrum with all the other big guys, so what, at least no one player gets it's hands on the spectrum.. Make any sense?

Sure seems NEXTWAVE is rising!

Imagine what a BRAND NEW 3G CDMA NETWORK would do for Q...
