But only if FCC will adopt in its rules for auction the following four conditions: open applications, open devices, open services, and open networks.

In Google’s opinion these four conditions are an assurance that regardless of who wins the spectrum at auction, consumers’ interests are served.

The first two conditions will allow consumer to use any application or device with a wireless network they prefer.

The last two, open services and open networks, means that reseller will be able to acquire wireless services from a 700 MHz licensee on a wholesale basis and interconnect at any technically feasible point in a 700 MHz licensee’s wireless network.

“While these all are positive steps, unfortunately the current draft order falls short of including the four tailored and enforceable conditions, with meaningful implementation deadlines, that consumer groups, other companies, and Google have sought. In short, when Americans can use the software and handsets of their choice, over open and competitive networks, they win.” wrote Schmidt in his open-letter.

Also Schmidt’s letter states that "Google intends to commit a minimum of $4.6 billion to bidding in the upcoming auction" if the company's four conditions can be spelled out with "specific, enforceable and enduring rules."

Until now FCC didn’t announced publicly its proposed rules for the auction. Last week FCC chairman Kevin Martin previewed the draft rules and he has indicated an interest in making cell phones and cellular applications open. But the draft rules presented so far did not include the wholesale requirement.

Wireless providers like Verizon and AT&T have been critical of calls for an open network. Earlier this week Verizon has called the open access proposals a case of "imposition of regulatory judgments and intervention in the markets."
