 Echostar and DirecTV have teamed up to bid on wireless spectrum in an auction next month, as the two companies gear up to offer their own broadband service to compete with the incumbent triple play. As we've discussed, DirecTV owner Rupert Murdoch is geared up to make a billion dollar broadband move, which most speculate will be an entry into the national Wimax market. The new triple-play service would likely be blended with Murdoch's ever-increasing content collection (Myspace, IGN, etc.).
