From the same article:
Dish is “disappointed” because the FCC’s decision delays introduction of “new mobile broadband competition” Aaron Johnson, a spokesman for the Englewood, Colorado-based company, said in a statement last week. He didn’t elaborate on the network plans other than to say Dish would complete the DBSD and TerreStar airwaves acquisitions as soon as possible. A separate company spokesman, Marc Lumpkin, declined to comment further yesterday.
"as soon as possible" is not the same as the real quote: "as soon as practible".
So where does this leave the confirmation plan? Is there a March 20 deadline now for Dish to close the deal?
I'm sure the Judge would want to know what they are going to do.
