Google's Schmidt: Clearwire Investment Good for Business, Policy

In our previous analysis of Google's participation in the Clearwire funding deal, we surmised it made sense both from a business standpoint as well as a public policy standpoint. In the first public comments about Clearwire we've seen from him since the deal was announced on May 7, Google CEO Eric Schmidt tells the German publication FAZ that the search giant's half-billion dollar commitment "is a good business and it also supports the principles of openness."

For more of the Q&A, which also touches on mobile advertising, here's the link.

Google is too large to be focoused on just one access technology. This is where questions arise as to why Google is fiddling with Mobile WiMAX when there are three billion Mobile users on other networks.
However the fact is that it is only the " Open" WiMAX networks and their application specific delivery capabilities which can give Google the capability to develop the new generation of applications. These new applications add one more dimension of high speed continuous connectivity and will be as different from the present applications as a 3D view is from a plain picture.
