Comment Re:Finally. A Google plan I can get behind (Score 2) 101

One thing Google has continuously failed miserably at is customer service. Unless they are going to invest some time/money/energy in improving their track record in this regard their wireless plans had better be dirt cheap/free. You already have Republic Wireless and FreedomPop sitting at that level. And I switched to Ting two years ago despite them being on the Sprint network because they have great rates for all but the most voracious data consumers and the best customer service of any company I have ever done business with. Next month they'll be adding the T-Mobile network to their offerings and they just started offering Internet in a couple of locations. I'll be watching to see if Google gets the customer service aspect down.

Comment Tizen is OSS (Score 0) 35

Samsung has put A LOT of time and energy into Tizen but Tizen is OSS from the ground up. Google gave us a mostly OSS Android experience but OEM's don't like being beholden to them in many areas. Especially areas where Google is competing against them. Tizen is very appealing in that regard and why so many OEM's are looking at Tizen in their devices. Look for all manner or smart devices to start running Tizen in the near future.

Comment Re:what about spectrums rights? (Score 1) 104

Which is why the FCC needs to take back all the spectrum and assign one company to build out a network using the whole spectrum while carriers sell service and lease capacity from the company maintaining the network. Basically make all service providers MVNO's. Much like deregulated electric providers are today. It aint perfect but it's better than what we have now.
