I am sorry to look stupid here guys but I am missing the point. Please spell it out for me like I am a pre-schooler. I am not grasping the finer points being made. What is it about Martin's answer that will have any effect on us or other licensed wireless broadband industries.
Thanks,

And you may be right and that is my point in drawing out this answer Martin made to the committee. He also states the reclass would eliminate unnecessary regulatory barriers and clarifications of such, though he does not provide an example. And if his agenda for this reclass does only effect licensed spectrum, how will that effect the regulatory burdens on the UL provider? This may be the NPRM that brings a significant amount of the UL providers out of the closet, so to speak... or maybe not.

All,

I got the impression Martin did not have WISP's in mind when he made this decision.

As quoted from the article;

"He added it also would “establish a consistent regulatory framework across broadband platforms.” This is the same rationale Martin has used to support deregulation of DSL, BPL and cable modem Internet access. He said action on the wireless broadband question would be especially timely since the FCC just auctioned AWS-1 spectrum for wireless broadband and is preparing for a 700MHz auction."

See page seven, second to last paragraph;
The Commission is also considering an order that would classify wireless broadband Internet access service as an information service...
