Mobilicity Gets Approval to Launch Wireless Network

Mobilicity (DAVE Wireless) has received a green light from the Canadian Radio-television and Telecommunications Commission to operate as a telecommunications carrier. The CRTC approval was granted subject to changes, which Mobilicity has agreed to implement within the required timeframe.

Mobilicity is gearing up to launch in Toronto this spring; rollouts will subsequently take place in Vancouver, Edmonton, Calgary and Ottawa.

"We have been given the approval to offer Canadians truly competitive wireless services," said Mobilicity Chairman John Bitove. "It has taken four years to get to this stage and the impact of our upcoming launch will be felt across the country. We want to thank the CRTC for its insightful handling of our application and let consumers know that Mobilicity will be bringing simplicity and value to Canadian wireless customers very soon."

Following the Canadian wireless spectrum auction, Mobilicity holds licenses which cover more than half of Canada's population in 10 of the 13 largest markets including Toronto, Vancouver, Calgary, Edmonton and Ottawa.
