"We are pleased the FCC has put out the Public Notice for comment on the application of open Internet rules for our industry. We are happy the Chairman and the Commissioners realize that wireless is different. We will continue to work with them to explain why these rules are unnecessary and should not be applied to the wireless ecosystem.
"The fact is that mobile Internet works for Americans. With more than 285 million subscriber connections, consumers are seeing the tremendous benefits of the industry's innovation and investment in mobile broadband.
"We look forward to continuing the dialogue with the Commission on why wireless is different."
