NW: I am on board as well. Have not posted before but have been following this stock for some time.

I definitely believe in the technology and the ability to bundle services and offer competitive prices. The technology offers customers a huge pipe to deliver services that today is still not available on the wireline phone companies without fiber. And it can be deployed economically since cable or fiber does not have to be run to each individual home. A city the size of NY has a lot of potential users.

The company though needs to prove that it can build out their system and get those subs to buy their product. But even if CVUS is slow to deliver, I see their license in that market to be a gem, regardless what the auction results show. Cellular licences back in the 80's went cheaply and a lot of big companies that had the ability to get on board early did not because they did not feel that the service would be that popular. A prime example of that was the divestiture of the Bell system, where AT&T was split out from the local RBOCs. AT&T had the chance to retain the cellular licenses awarded to the wireline companies, but let it go to the baby Bell RBOCs. Then 10 years later, AT&T spent a huge chunk of money to buy back into the cellular service business by buying out Cellular One and creating AT&T Wireless Services.

My point is that CVUS holds a license that I see as being key to a larger entity's puzzle. It's just a matter of time.
