Does either Google or Dish have their own cellular infrastructure?

I'm a bit skeptical, but I wouldn't be surprised to see something. They could even try to partner with a company like Tmobile. Google has a big interest in making sure that mobile remains opens and affordable. The current powers, not so much. |

I'm sure it will be drastically overpriced monthly fees as well.

Why do you say that? Google is offering free internet (5Mbps) for life after a one-time fee of $300 or you can opt to pay $25/mo for a year instead. Hardly a money-grubbing tactic.

They will eventually. I'm just saying that Google doesn't seem like a money-grubbing bastard company.
