Yes, I agree that one example of the definition COULD be construed as accurate. > Methinks you're simply placing too much emphasis on the phrase > "700 MHz." I'm looking at three examples that suggest confusion: 1. "... the 'white space' frequencies recently vacated by the U.S. DTV transition." (Obviously, not a correct definition.) 2. "We will quickly see a wave of innovation in wireless products and services around 700MHz, ..." (Do you REALLY believe they are talking about Ch 50 an 51??) 3. Mention of Bluetooth, Zigbee, DECT, and the 2.4 GHz band, as examples of relevant expoerience.
