But it could be used as the PtP infrastructure between the 700 and 800 that
Nextel is supposed to be freeing up?

Exactly, and I'm sure Blake wil also agree that 4.9 GHz is useful only
for fixed multipoint, PtP, or picocell tactical mesh (ala Packethop). I
should not say "only" because these are vital needs and enable large,
secure and relatively interference-immune pipes. But since public safety
workers spend most of their time in the field, the critical need is
mobile broadband access -- and the more dedicated in nature (as in
reserved for them) the better. And certainly there are not enough
dollars in the world to build a ubiquitous 4.9 GHz network; it simply is
not the band for such a thing and such an idea would be absurd.

4.9 is the only true data band.
800 is still shared - and Nextel is not
vacating it, just moving around a bit on it.
150, 450, and 800 will not support high
speed data with the present day band plan,
and changing that band plan would be a
unworkable at this day and time.
What do you mean about the third band that the
nationwide interoperable network could be in?

What all bands does the public safety "industry" use?
150 MHz
450 MHz
800 MHz
4.9 GHz
4.9 is exclusively public safety.
Nextel was granted some 1.9 GHz so that they would vacate 800 MHz,
leaving
it to public safety.
The others are general commercial bands.
Now the FCC wants to give them 700 MHz. I'm all about giving them what
they
need, but how much do they need? This would be the third band they
could do
their nationwide inter-operable network in.
