Iota Communications Inc. (fka IOTC)

No "news" on licensing... no PR (not needed) and a infinitesimal number of people are aware of these licenses being granted, let alone know what it means, or how it will be commercialized.

For us, it is probably the last hurdle to start commercializing our ICS building automation systems at scale within the year, in three of the densest cities (NYC, Chicago, Boston).

The licenses that have been grated since 9/10 are in geographies that were previously approved, with licenses nearby issued 5 years ago.

The fact they "cleared" these 3 big cities shows

1) the FCC 800 mhz Transfer Administrator is still making progress (like a thundering herd of snails

2) the FCC is back to granting licenses in this spectrum

3) IOTA applications continue to be accepted. Each of these licenses have been granted directly to IOTA, so we now watch to see what lessee applications are granted.

4) still waiting on new licenses for new geographies which were applied for back in either June or July.

I cannot reiterate what a big hurdle it was to overcome this for these three cities.
