Eircom takes Irish wireless license

DUBLIN, Ireland-Ireland’s telecom regulator awarded Eircom plc the country’s fourth broadband wireless license. Esat Telecom, Formus Communications and Princes Holdings previously received broadband wireless local loop licenses.

A legal proceeding had delayed the license award, first announced in 1999. Ireland’s Broadnet had challenged the award, but after a review of the license allocation, the regulator upheld its original decision.
