I still think IDCC may be collaborating with MSFT in their internet for all initiative using un-used tv spectrum. IDCC has a lot of expertise in this area, going all the way back to B-CDMA and the UltraPhone. Who else knows more about utilizing and optimizing radio spectrum than IDCC?
I brought this up awhile back on the IDCC board but didn't get much interest, just cold water. They were too busy bashing management. I don't have any links to share, but y'all can look it up.
