"Verizon Wireless (VZ)(VOD) was the biggest winner of the Federal Communications Commission’s 700 MHz auction, winning six large licenses that i will give it air space to provide next-generation wireless broadband service in the C-Block of the spectrum vacated by broadcast television.
AT&T (T) won 227 licenses from the “B” block of regional licenses, but Google, while it submitted a serious bid for the C block, in the end won no licenses.
AT&T winning bids totaled about $6.64 billion while Verizon is paying $9.63 billion."
Google (GOOG) got nothing and saved a lot of cash
