MICHAEL POWELL IS RESIGNING: BlogCritics has a roundup.

UPDATE: Some fairly rare blogospheric praise for Powell, for some of his less-famous stances: “Over the last four years, Powell by his public statements and, ostensibly, private actions has managed to open more spectrum, consider innovative secondary uses of licensed spectrum, and build a framework for cleaning up the messier and least used bands that are needed for 3G and beyond and WiMax and beyond. In these areas, Powell’s leadership encouraged technologies that aren’t centrally owned or controlled and that may, in fact, dislodge primacy of wireline incumbents.”
