Paul, Wish I could chime in on this, but I'm working for MLL Telecom & the auction conditions mean I will have important things cut off if I talk about it.
Before this all started someone suggested BT might get back into mobile and do the equivalent of 3 back at the 3G auctions, launching a 4G only service backed up by 2G & 3G partners. But things are different this time round as voice just becomes a data service. And with that, I shall shut up until it's over.
