Hooking up CA

Dewayne Hendricks (according to an article from Motorola) is heading up a project partially funded by the state of California to bring 1 gigabit broadband access to every person in the state by the end of the decade. The article says:

Hendricks believes that unless the FCC loosens its spectrum restrictions, other less-regulated countries quickly will exceed U.S. technological innovations.

?You?ll see technologies move to countries where there aren?t incumbency issues,? he says. ?Places like Tonga will deploy technology that makes us look like cave people.?
