Robust wireless broadband investment affirms broadband competition

The latest research data from CTIA has some eyepopping big numbers on how much U.S. wireless providers are investing in wireless and broadband wireless competitive facilities.

• According to the CTIA latest numbers, the wireless industry invested $24.4 billion in facilities in 2006.
• That makes a cumulative investment by the industry of $224 billion in competitive wireless facilities.
• This is way more investment in competitive wireless facilities than any other nation in the world.
• This is additional evidence to bolster my thesis that America is unique in developing robust competitive broadband facility competition, which I made in my Washington Times commentary: "America's Unique Internet Success."  

Those NN proponents who dismiss that broadband is a competitive market and only getting more so, continually ignore the overwhelming facts available.
