I believe that the FCC still doesn't get it. We were looking for small business credits in the bidding process. We felt that might "level the playing field". We shall see where it goes. For those of us who deliver "last mile" and do so in large geographic chunks instead of "cherry picking" communities, we feel as though the direction the FCC is taking is counter to a real competitive environment and is doing little to advance the march of broadband into the rural community.

Certainly by depriving the network of needed text-messaging revenue I am harming it? I suppose 3rd-party devices will keep an accounting of what network services they are using, so that users can compare their device's side of the story to the network's. Fine work Jason.

You did a great job and really explained the lack of progress well. Hopefully things will improve but something tells me otherwise. I am watching this on cspan right now.
